Hey all--Just to update you all, I was sleeved on June 23rd in Costa Rica. The surgery went well and I have lost 23 1/2 pounds already. I just realized the other day that I didn't receive any post op paperwork or x-rays or anything like that. Well, I received paperwork, but not on the operation itself. Am I the only one that didn't receive that? Should I e-mail my surgeon and ask for stuff? I really should have all of that sort of thing to discuss with my PCP. I have an appointment with my PCP tomorrow, though. AAAAHHHH!!

Glad you're doing so well Photogirl. I know all of Dr Aceves' patients get their chest x-ray, xray of the last leak test; EKG results, bloodtest results and an operative report. I would definitely ask your surgeon for these items.

Where did you have surgery? Is it possible for them to fax the information, or did you have it out of the country? If it was out of the country, then I would definitely call and ask them if they can mail you a copy of your records as soon as possible.

Thank you guys. I'm gonna e-mail and maybe call the surgeon in Costa Rica to see if I can get some of those things.
