I wish I knew that I would have a drain for 48 hours. My surgeon never mentioned it so I assumed they didn't use them, wrong. That was a surprise to wake up to and the most painful part for me.

Also I wish I prepared myself better for mild regret directly after surgery and how slow moving through the stages would feel.

Now I'm almost 11 months out, about 15-20 pounds from goal and I have zero regrets.

Awesome and glad things are better, I am preparing mental self for a little emotional rollercoaster but I

know why i'm doing. Thank you for sharing

Atlanta

@Taylor5 Thank you for the information , the more i think about it the more i'm convinced Dr. Ortiz may be

the right choice. He has been around a long time, I am going to call them in the morning and

chat with them. The other facility is in a hospital and you stay there your entire stay ( which i like) but the doctor is more important than any other factor to me.

Thanks again for taking the time to answer my question , it was very helpful

What day do you have your surgery?

Hi ,

My surgery date is 12/20/17 and i have researched for over a year. I am having my surgery at Trinity Medical in Mexico.

I am nervous and thinking about changing to OCC because of all the information available about Dr. Ortiz.

Maybe i'm just having a lil anxiety because the date is getting closer.

Any Sleever's with information about either facility?

Thanks ( Nervous in Ga )

Wow everyone looks great!!! I'm encouraged

@dametris What was it like the first few days after surgery? Any regrets?

How fast is the recovery? Can you go back to work pretty quickly?

Thank you
