Just got scheduled for my band to revision surgery with Dr. Ortiz in Mexico at the end of the month. My problem is that I am unable to have my band unfilled prior to the surgery like they recommend. I talked to the Dr. there and he said as long as I do full liquid diet for at least 2 weeks prior to surgery, I should be fine. I guess I am just nervous about that and was wondering if anyone else had the same issue? My problem is that getting someone locally (NC) to perform the un-fill is going to cost at least $750 locally (nothing covered by insurance) and that just gets out of the budget. Am I overreacting?
