First I have to tell you when I went into the examine room and the Dr start asking questions about what's going on with me I told him that I had gastric sleeve in Mexico he

Went off on me saying that's not a good idea going to Mexico because you need after care because what cause go wrong and a lot of doctors don't want to take you because people go out the US to have surgery but don't think about aftercare. I really felt bad and he was right he referred me to a Dr I hope he take me. But on the upside he gave me scope and everything is great I healing great but he told me I need to purée foods longer my stomach isn't ready for soft and tender foods yet and it's been 6 weeks well I I'm one of the people that take longer to heal.

Not surprised the US doctor went nuts on you. If they would smarten up along with the insurance companies they would keep us in the USA for surgery! I too am on my way to Mexico this weekend and not concerned at all. Take care of yourself! -_-
