MiDoctor Hospital (any surgeon!) 2013 Roll Call!



Recommended Posts

Thought we could do a roll call for upcoming 2013 surgeries at MiDoctor Hospital in TJ. I figured it could help us link up while we are in TJ. I am with Dr. Garcia on 1/22 and will arrive at the Marriott on 1/21. I'm going through Ready 4 a Change. Also if any past patients want to chime in, I'm sure we'd all love to hear about your progress!

Cabrera/Valenzuela, MBC, March 13th.

Arrive at marriott March 12 and I check out March 16th. I'm paying for an extra day at the hotel since I have a long flight home and I remember how miserable I was after gallbladder surgery, I figured an extra day might be nice.

Amanda' date=' I thought you were going on the 11th?[/quote']

I was. Dr. Lopez and I had conflicting schedules so I could only go the week b4 the 11th or after. After works best.

I'm doing an extra night in San Diego before flying home too. I'm an east coaster and had a VERY hard time finding flights that didn't leave until after 11am, so my mom and I decided to take our time and just fly back the following morning. We are staying at the Hampton Inn and using Ready 4 A Change's corporate ID for a special rate :) there is a free shuttle to the airport for us the morning!

My date with Lopez was the 11th, but I'm having to reschedule for the week before. I haven't picked a day yet. I will probably see you there!!!

That's a great idea. I didn't even think of staying in SanDiego! I had a really hard time finding a flight for the right times (and at the right price) too. I'm flying in and out of Boston. I finally checked with Jet blue and discovered that they had EXACTLY the flights I needed and at good prices... and non-stop, so I don't have to worry about layovers.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
