What is the FAST TRACK PASS ?



Recommended Posts

Someone mentioned it here and I can't find that post.

She said she bought one in TJ and it helped her back out of TJ faster.

Anyone know where we get these? At hotel?

From what I've read, it is a special pass that lets you use a special car lane at the border to reduce your waiting time to cross. The passes are offered by merchants and businesses like hospitals as an incentive to buy from them.

I've seen a few websites that offer a complimentary pass for using their medical services. Here is an example.

But you would need to contact your hotel, physician or hospital to find out if they offer the pass or if you can buy one locally once your in Mexico.

your medical driver will have one.

You do not need to get it if you are being driven across the boarder.

My doctor gave my driver one. They are super time sensitive papers. And I got over the boarder in 20 min as opposed to 3-5 hours.

Samuel at ready for achange had a medical pass, same thing. We got across in 30-45 min. The line we passed up, cars were stacked up there, looked like a 4 hour wait.

Sounds like they still used it they just didnt tell you. Did you pass a much longer line of cars to your left when driving up to the border?

That would not suprise me at all. Samuel called me the night before to confirm

Pick up at 12:00 am and woke me up. I was not happy at all and expressed that. His Dad ended up coming instead. Maybe he does not have that access. Yes, I did see that line no biggie. I am happy to home safe and sound and away from that place :)

strawberry, I had a fine experience there but was ready to come home. I would have been the same anywhere I went. Surgery was no fun. Not as easy as some people make it out to be but easier than I expected. The walk walk walk is so true.

Yeah being in Tijuana is not a vacation you want to have. I wanted to got as fast as possible as well. While also being in pain from surgery it's not ideal. There's no place like America and being home.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
