Hello everyone I have been researching this procedure now for 3 months. I have no insurance so have decided to head for the Border. This forum is PRICELESS, filled with valuable info and first hand accounts, it will surely be my home through my journey of change.

Hi Shontel, Welcome to LBT. It really is an amazing place, isnt it? It's been a huge help to me and so much fun making new friendships.

Good luck in your early stages of the journey. Really do your research and pick a good doc. :mad:

Hi Shontel,

I am also a self-pay having surgery in Mexico. My surgery is on March 7, 2006 and my surgeon is Roberto Rumbaut. Who are you going to have do your surgery?

After months of research, I chose Dr. Sanchez, for me, he was the best and most reasonable in terms of cost, since I'm a self pay. Good luck to you! I'm still saving so haven't set a date yet, but hope to very soon :welldone2:

Hello everyone , I am new to forum. I am thinking about the LBP and have spoken to 4 doctors. I think that Dr.Rodriguez is my best choice to have it done in Mexico because I live in the DFW area and I want the same Dr to do my fills. But I want feedback on something, is there anyone who will finance the entire surgery($8900.00).I really want it done by summer but cannot afford it right now.

There are many medical finance options available. Ask your patient coordinator about what ones they use, or you could take a personal loan ect.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
