I am having surgery in mexico on August 17th, so in less than 2 wks, I am so scared about the procedure and then going to mexico as well. I could have had RNY at home and covered by insurance but just could not stand the thought of that procedure. I settled on this plan for my best affordability and did my research. I am worried about the fills once I get home and getting care as well. My insurance will take care of me but any complications and I know they will say just take it out, they have no respect for this procedure and only do RNY.
