HI LISA i was supposed to have my surgery with Dr Joya on 6/13 but I ended up in the hospital mid april for 5 days with a toxic cellulitis in my thigh and had to have surgery. Was on antibiotics for three weeks and 1 week after finishing antibiotics, ended up with a urinary tract infection. My primary Dr stated that he felt the sleeve surgery should be put off for a little bit until my body healed a little more and was not so immunocompromised, So-------- I am now planning to have it the end of august or beginning of sept. It is good to see that someone else is going to Dr Joya. Most everyone on this forum has gone to TJ etc. Would luv to be friends so we can give each other support during both of our adventures in PV and afterwards. Send me an email at sls362@comcast.net to let me know

Hope to hear from u soon------------------- Sandi

Dr Joya was my first choice! But after more thought, I went with Dr Kelly because he is closer for me to access. Even Dr Kelly said Joya was a fine surgeon, and that they are old friends. Im glad some ppl are going there too!

Hi Sandy, I am so glad to hear that about Dr.Joya as you stated most here go to Tijuana. He is more expensive then Tijuana but closer and more convenient for me travel wise as my husband and my two stepsons are coming and staying at a resort

Lisa--

I will be traveling by myself when I go. I have to see a hemetologist to see if there is a problem with my immune system before I get the surgery. I have done the bloodwork and I will see the dr in 1 wk when test results r back. Once I know that I can reschedule the surgery. Hopefully still for end of Aug or beginning of sept

It was good to hear from u

also sleeve guru--- thank u for your info about Dr Joya It is good to hear from someone about him. Do not get muxh on the forum about him--- sandi

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
