Anyone scheduled for 11/4 w/ Dr. Aceves in Mexicali?



Recommended Posts

I scheduled my surgery for November 4th with Dr. Aceves in Mexicali! I am SO excited but so nervous.. I was actually more nervous about not being able to get the 3 weeks off work! Is there anyone that will be traveling to Mexicali to see Dr. Aceves at this time? I feel very confident about the choice of my surgeon. I have have done so much research on him, and my wife has spent countless hours up at night researching everything she can about Dr. Aceves, Almater Hospital, and Mexicali.

I have not told my Mom yet.. at first I thought it would be best not to, but if anything ever happened there at least she would know where I was.

My wife will be traveling with me... THE most supportive, unconditionally loving, and giving person I have ever met in my life. I could not have a better partner and love in all my life.

If anyone needs any support or someone to talk with, I am here!

Best of luck to you. Having a great support system makes such a difference. My hubby and family were cautiously supportive too. Mx threw them for a loop.

My mom went with me and she was taken aback in a positive way with my surgical team and everything else at Almater.

Thank you ladies... 11/4 cannot come soon enough! I don't know how some of these women go to something like this alone... that takes a lot of guts! I am so excited for this change.. I have been down on myself for too long, and luckily I don't have too far to go: I am 5'5 and 196lbs. I would love to lose 50-60 pounds!

Congratulations to both of you lovely ladies on your weight loss!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
