I'm having surgery with Dr. Almanza on September 10th. I am very nervous, but excited at the same time.

I will be having surgery with Dr. Almanza on Aug 23. I will be going alone. Kind of worried about getting lost in San Diego airport. Also, wondering where my valuables will be kept while I am having surgery? Being from New York State, alot of people are very skeptical about my choice to have surgery in Mexico. I really am not to worried about being in Mexico alone. I just want to have my surgery and get on with my life. Is there any sleever out there who has had complications with their surgery from Mexico? If so, how did you go about getting treated in the U.S.?

Please post your experience when you return. I am taking my hubby with me, I think he is more nervous than I am. I'm a little nervous but I also feel like this really isn't the way I want to live any more and I have tried many diets and been very successful at times, only to gain it all back. My hubby and I are the only ones that know I am having this done in Mexico. I told family that I was flying to San Diego to have the surgery, so for now they are assuming that is where I am having it done. Once I return and all is well, we will enlighten them with the rest of the srtory. I just don't need to hear all of their opions right now since they aren't going to do research as I have, they will just have preconceived notions. I am interested in reading responses from your questions as well as your story when you return.

Best of luck, I am praying all goes well for you!

LV, Your special day is rapidly approaching Have you begun your pre-op diet yet? I wish we were going at the same time, my hubby is a wonderful care giver and we would just adopt you for a few days I hope is going well for you!

I will do my best to post my experience while I am there and when I return home. I saw on your profile that you are from KY, you probably guessed from my screen name that I am from Ohio. I you flying to San Diego? Is someone going with you?

Yes I'll be flying in to san from cvg. My son plans on going with me if he gets his passcard on time. Where are you flying out of?

Flying out of Columbus. I hope your son is able to go. Maybe we can meet up sometime after we have healed up a bit.

yes, and we'll have clear liquids, lol, sounds like fun.
