I have scheduled my surgery for dec 4th. But I'm afraid because I'm having it done in Mexico at the Jerusalem hospital! Anyone have theirs done there please help me!!!!

I'm sorry that I am no help as I am just starting the pre-op process but I was just curious about how you mentioned having your sleeve done in Mexico. I have read on here about a lot of people going to Mexico, is there a reason for that rather than having in done at your local hospital? Is it an insurance issue, less red tape (ie: less pre op time/work up)...just wondering?

Yes ma'am it is about $11,000 cheaper

I wasn't a MX sleever, but there's a whole section here on the MX doctors. Also, you can do a search for Jerusalem Hospital at the top of the page & hopefully find other folks that way. Good luck!

Thank you so much!!

Why are you scared? Did you do your research?

Ok. I didn't know the reason you were scared and I completely understand. I was terrified and scared too that I had made a crazy decision. But trust in yourself that you've done your homework and have made a good decision.

I've read all but positive information about WLS in Mexico. Mines will be in Burbank, CA

Search your doctor and hospital and you will find all the info posted. I think you will feel much better and comfortable.

I've done my research and felt good and ready. However yesterday I confirmed my surgery on 11/15/13 and today I feel my emotions out of control. Happy, excited, butterflies to suddenly crying. I don't know why the crying and blaming the pmsing.

From all I've researched feeling scared is normal.

Best wishes and luck to us all.
