I will be going to Mexico on my own to have surgery with Dr. Kelly on January 3rd (in just a few short weeks!) and have questions on how others secured their items while in surgery...i'm talking about your passport, wallet, credit cards and smart phone...did you leave it at the hotel? So if you did, does that mean that you went to the hospital without any ID? Can these items be secured in the hospital? Aside from items how secure did you feel on your own??? Is there anything within walking distance of the hospital/hotel that you could easily walk to? Last questions...whille at the hotel...how did you arrange for food? Room service...or did you feel up to getting food on your own???

Sorry for all the questions! Any answers to some or all of these questions are SOOOOO appreciated! I'll take answers from those that have already gone or those who plan on going solo!

Here's to us LONE RANGERS!!!

I kept all my belongings with me in the hospital. There was nowhere to lock them up, but I really wasn't worried about theft. As for food at the hotel, I wasn't in the mood to eat anything, and I had brought my own herbal teas and clear Protein drinks. I did trek to a convieniece store and got a Popsicle and Water one day.

I went alone and felt totally safe. Your driver, ricardo will pick and drop you off and he is awesome. I had no problems and I'm looking at going back to Mexico in a year or so or plastics....

Good Luck...keep us posted as soon as you can ok! Im leaving on the 13th with Dr. Kelly too! Soooo nervous!!!! KIT

Thanks to all for ur responses. Im On the plane right now. Probably an hour or so outside of San Diego. Surgery tommorrow....please wish me luck!!!!

OMG, good luck honey!!! I will pray for a safe surgery!!! Let us know how things went as soon as you are free to write us!! I feel like I'm there with you!!! Ahhhh!!

I found you!!! I hope that your flight home went smoothly and that you are still feeling well

Definitely give us an update. I am shooting for a late March/early April sleeve date with Dr. Kelly and I will be traveling by myself as well so I have many of your same concerns.
