Mexico Octosleevers! Add Your Name, Date And Surgeon!

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 ;-)

Thank you so much I'm just waiting in the room they just did the ekg....keep me in your thoughts everyone ill update as soon as I can ;)

Zenoosh - I think I'm staying at the hotel lucerna. Didn't ask, but all of dr. Kelly's patients seem to stay there ?

I booked for may this year but got talked out of it, tried many other diets in between and lost and gained back 40 pounds since then. I'm so done with this yoyo !

Now I have my flights bought and time booked off work. It's

going to happen!

I'm officially sleeved!!! I have 4 incisions and feeling ok I have pain in my shoulder that everyone talked about, but i keep waking in hopes that'll go away soon! Everyone is great here i only had one little episode of nausea and they immediately gave me something and I was all better. As for surgery I don't remember anything just asking when they were going to do the surgery and they told it was already over with;)

Btw, 4 incisions! That's fantastic...i know its different fur everyone, depending on your anatomy, etc... But I've been reading about peeps with MANY incisions: I want as few as is necessary. I'll be thrilled if I get 4...

Thank you, recovery is going ok just finished walking and now doing my lung exercise. My leak test should be in the next couple of hrs.

Getting sleeved with Dr. Kelly Oct 24th. Have thought about changing over to Dr Lopez tho...

Thank you' date=' recovery is going ok just finished walking and now doing my lung exercise. My leak test should be in the next couple of hrs.[/quote']
