I am hoping for 4/14. Who is your surgeon? When are you going? Which hotel? Which hospital? I am going to go by myself. I would love to have a buddy.

I am pretty sure I am going with Dr Illan. Do you know that Jerusalem Hospital is not really a hospital but a clinic in a strip mall. If you have any complications you would be sent via ambulance to a real hospital. If you are comfortable with that I am cool with that. I just thought I would tell you I case you didn't know. Also you should check into where you go to recover.

I'm undecided yet if I'm going in April or the first week in may. My doctor will be Dr. Illan. I had anxiety this week when I was thinking on scheduling in march so I am giving myself a few days to pick my surgery date.

I am having my sleeve on Friday, April 11th with Dr. Cabrera. I am so nervous and excited! I have done so much research and made my mind up that this is the best decision for me and my health. I am staying at the Marriott Tijuana and surgery at Hospital MI Doctor. I am concerned about how much time I really need to take from work. Flying on the 10th, surgery on the 11th and currently going back to work on Monday the 21st. Just wonder if I need another day or two....

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
