Anyone using Dr. Jose Rodriguez in Mexico? My surgery in November 29 and I am hoping to

meet someone going around that time.

I didnt use him, but one of my friends did and so did her cousin. She had a great experience! If you want, i can try to get you two in touch!

I'm using him. Mine is scheduled for 1/24 in TJ. If you got to the self pay/Mexico forum you will find more.

Sorry i didnt see that you were looking for someone going around the same time as you. Ooops!!

I am a little loopy from getting my gallbladder out yesterday so i just saw dr. Rod and remembered my friend used him! lol

I wish you all the best with your surgery coming up! I had surgery in august and i am down 91 pounds. Best decision i ever made!

Thanks Niki. Hope you feel better from your surgery. Is the pain about the same

with gallbladder as sleeve? I have a friend who had surgery with Dr. Rod last

month, so I know somewhat what to expect. Thanks for taking the time to answer

me. Praying for your speedy recovery.

Thanks, Marquel, I'll check it out.

To be honest, I think the gallbladder is more painful then the sleeve. I really didnt have any pain after the sleeve. And i was up walking around right away. And never needed any kind of pain meds after i left the hospital.

With the gallbladder the incisions seem to be much more sore. And they ended up keeping me overnight for observation because i was in pain and my oxygen level kept dropping. Its fine now. Just needed to rest longer.

So, if you have had gallbladder surgery already, the sleeve will be nothing!

(Of course this is just my opinion)
