Hello all,

I was just curious to know if you had complications and had to go to the ER did your surgeon attend to you or was it just hospital staff?

I am just trying to think, because right now I am in between going to Mexico or staying local and in the event I had to go to the ER say after I returned from Mexico I wondered if it would be a problem <<knock on wood I wont even need to>>.

Thank you in advance for your replies and I hope everyone has recovered or are recovering from

complications

If you had surgery in Mexico but live in the states I would still go to a hospital near you that has a bariatric surgeon. They will be able to treat you. For the rest of our lives if we need a nasogastric tube it needs to be placed by a bariatric surgeon. Also most complications are dehydration and minor other things not leakage so hospital staff can handle that.

Thank you, that helps . The one hospital that I go to (if i have to visit the ER) one of the surgeons I would have used if my insurance paid works out of that hospital so I feel a bit better.
