October 12, 201213 yr Author No date yet if everything goes right I should be able to get early January at penn medicine in Philly, met the doc for the first time he seems to be really cool and down to earth.. How was your experience in MX? I'm from South Jersey,Marlton area
October 12, 201213 yr Marlton? I'm right outside Mt. Holly. My experience in MX was wonderful! Everything ran so smoothly. We had a driver pick us up from the San Diego airport and then he drove us across the border and then to our hotel. I had preop testing and the next day was surgery day. It was great. I had no pain, whatsoever just discomfort and a bout of nausea from the anesthesia. It makes me sick. But so far so good. No complaints here. I'm even considering going back to MX for plastic surgery. That or the Dominican Republic.
October 19, 201213 yr In the Jersey Shore, going thru all my clearances now, surgery date is 12/28 tentatively
