I used Dr. Garcia in Tijuana and it was a great experience. Pre-surgery weight was 352. I lost 22lbs during my pre-op diet. I'm down to 310lbs eleven days post-op. So far it has been a great experience. I had no gas pain, very little surgical pain and my mind isn't messing with me yet. This seems to be a great community of sharing ideas and seeking support.

I had my surgery yesterday, August 3 with Jose Rodregous in Mexico. I was up all night with gas pain and it hurts very badly. I have a hArd Tim lying down because the pain starts up. I have been walking with my IV in the room and hallway. GasX only helps temporarily. I still haven't met my doctor but did meet his partner. So far all is good except the gas.

Hang in there. My wife has severe gas pain with each surgery. She has to endure it until it finally dissipates. Walking is about the only thing that will help with it.
