Leak Test Before Leaving Mexico?



Recommended Posts

Do all dr.'s perform a leak test before you leave? If yours does.. who did you use? If not... did they say why not?

Dr. Aceves performs 3 leaks test before you leave the hospital. That is one of the reasons I choose him for my surgeon.

Dr Kelly does 2 during surgery and a 3rd before you leave. The third is a dynamic test where you can watch the contrast pass through your sleeve, and he provides you with pics to take home. Most of the doctors do this!

Dr Gonzalez does 3. I think most Drs in Mexico do. I know my friend that had hers here in the states only had the 1 during surgery and that was it

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
