Thank you 'male teacher' for such a detailled account because while I always had a good feeling about them after doing a ton of research, there is probably comparably less info available about them than other doctors. Now I know exactly what to expect!

I'm having my sleeve done on or around March 4th, thats the tentative date, so it sounds like I may meet at least one person on this board! (cee cee :) )

Please as you have your experiences, please let us know as much as you can! I'm getting excited now.... :)

Ok so an update - Dr. Cabrera is wavering on approving my surgery. I have anemia (borderline) and there are a few issues, all minor, that I've had in other surgeries but I now have it all sorted and its good, I have had two surgeries (unrelated to this) that went textbook and i recovered great. BUT it has him concerned and he wants a doctors letter. Now also there was the suggestion that maybe I should think of Dr. Kelly who has more experience (and more $)

I am really asking for your help. Do you think Drs Cabrera and Louisana can handle a surgery that may be somewhat more challenging like dealing with scar tissue and adhesions ...how competent would you think they are? I'm wavering now. I really need guidance here. Thanks for sharing your experiences and I hope to see some on you in March. Wishing us all a safe experience. I'm open to all your advice!!

Sure will. It's very dark here arriving at 4 & checking in. No street lights like in most tourist areas. Casino is close but never walking there. Tucking into bed for 6:45 stroll to Mi Doctor. I'll be online to keep you posted.

Isn't the marriot so nice, I was sleeved 5 days ago and had a wonderful experience with them, I hope you have the same.

There is a blonde nurse with braces that I nicknamed nurse bossy, if you see her tell her the lady that named her nurse bossy said hi. She was so funny :)

I see her. I think Samantha is her name. She speaks better English than the rest..... I'll tell her for sure! I'm waiting my turn for surgery. I'm 2nd & that's it for today. It's kinda cold in room. No pillow or blanket are offered. But I requested it...

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
