helen 1959 replied to Boujie's topic in Mexico & Self-Pay Weight Loss Surgery
Hi Boujie Just wanted to check in with you to see how you are doing. Still hoping to get my surgery with Dr.Lopez at some point this year. Are you hppy with your results so far? Any regrets? cheers! -
. What a nightmare for you, what does your VSG surgeon have to say about this? I certainly hope that all turns out well for you. The very best of luck going forward.

FDClerical. Thanks so much for your answer. So sorry to read of recent sadness. The reflux issue seems to be a bit of a crap shoot as to whether you will be affected by it or not. A lot to think about. Good luck with your upper GI, I hope that you find a solution and some relief.

Would like to revise from band to sleeve but am concerned about this reflux issue. Even before having the band I had issues with acid reflux. I have it well under control now by taking omeprazol daily, but am concerned that with the sleeve the omeprazol won't be effective. Has anyone been ableto control their reflux succesfully by taking a ppi after VSG? Thnaks!

Hi Bougie! So happy to hear that all went well for you and that you had a greT experience. Your wonderfully detailed description of events has been all I needed to re-assure myself that Dr.Lopez is an excellent choice. Just one more question, if you don't mind; how many people were having surgery the same day as you? I'm quite familiar with the area where the hospital, hotel and spa are located as I have family who live in PV. Just beautiful. Thanks so much again for your update, would love to hear of your progress going forward. All the very best to you. -

Band to Sleeve Revision - Doctor recommendations
helen 1959 replied to Irish's topic in Revision Weight Loss Surgery Forums (NEW!)
Is that Dr. alejandro lopez? If it is, I am also thinking very seriously about having a revision from band to sleeve with him, he seems like a very capable and experienced surgeon. When are you going? I would be really happy to receive any feed back from you. Good luck!
