I am planning to have Surgery in Mexico. I still have not decided on Doctor. What is the average time spent in Mexico between hotel and hospital stay. Thanks

Our surgery was Friday. We got to San Antonio Wednesday night. We were picked up Thursday morning. Friday was surgery, Saturday was hospital, and were back on our way home on Sunday.

It varies between hospitals and doctors, whether or not that doctor uses a drain etc. My surgery was last October, had surgery on Monday, released from the hospital Wednesday and stayed in hotel another 2 days after which the drain was removed at the hotel and I could fly home.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
