Hey there! I want to start a thread of sleevers who are going to Mexico in October. I have found a couple people who have their surgeries scheduled and it's really nice to be in contact with others who may be there around the same time. I'm going to Tijuana for surgery with Dr Garcia October 27. I'll be staying at the Marriott for 3 nights total with 2 days at Mi Doctor hospital for the actual surgery and recovery. If there are others going to Mexico , but not in October, feel free to post also: I've found it so helpful to find others in the same boat as myself...

I'll make a list if there are enough people to generate one. Good luck! We're gonna rock this thing

Whew good news the Dr will fit me in on the sunday so all is good and my date remains unchanged <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> What a load off my mind! <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

That's great, hazelsmrf! I was just about to tell you that I was actually toying with the idea to leave a day early, just to be at home!! Im glad they sorted it out for you: the less stress, the BETTER :-).

Whew good news the Dr will fit me in on the sunday so all is good and my date remains unchanged What a load off my mind!

In other awesome news, EVERYONE in my household is sick right now. My 3 year old son is not so bad, just some sniffles. My 6 year old daughter though, I was up half the night with her because she'd have non stop coughing fits, a stuffy nose, just miserable. I would take her into a steamy bathroom, propped her bed up, attempted to unclog her nostrils with saline, rubbed Vicks all over her, ugh. And my husband started coughing and feeling like crap last night. So I'm sure I'm already infected and just don't know it yet. That'll be super fun having coughing fits with all those fresh incisions, ugh ugh.

I've been doing the house cleaning/packing bit today too! Flight leaves at 9am and I doubt I'll get a wink of sleep! I'll be leaving Hospital MI as you're getting there. I'll be sure and smile and wave as we pass through the revolving door going in opposite directions!! Thank you for being so diligent with this post. It's been been a lot of help keeping up with the fellow Mexico peeps! Have a safe trip and good luck with surgery!

I was there with ready2bskinny:) love that girly:)

Hi everyone, My surgeries went well, I also had my gall bladder out at the same time, so I was pretty miserable for the day of surgery until last nite. This morning I feel like a million bucks, and ready to get out of the hospital and get to the hotel. Dr Ponce is wonderful, and Trish has taken care of me and my husband like we were family very sweet!
