Did You Have A Leak?

Any self-pay folks have a leak emerge while in Mexico and if so, did they keep you there and treat the leak, or...did they simply send you back to the US for treatment? If anyone didn't pass one of the leak tests, what do the surgeons do? Do they reoperate?

Thanks.

Good question. I'm gonna have to put this on some of my last few questions!

No leaks, had great care, wonderful experience! Feeling better!

Dr. Kelly was with me for the leak test. If I had a leak, he told me we would go back to surgery. By the way he said it, I felt as though he would have taken care of everything himself.

No leaks but if I had one it would have been treated there. They won't release you until you have passed both leak tests.
