YAYYYYYYY!!!!!! Who is your surgeon?

Dr Cabrera

I'm getting VERY nervous and second guessing this decision.....

I'm having surgery on April 17 with Dr. Garcia in Tijuana. I met another girl online who's actually decided to go with him on the same day so we will be doing it "together" which is nice. Anyone else near the 17th in Tijuana?

I'll be at Marriot from April 12-18, will be sleeved by Dr Ariel Ortiz/ Martinez

I am scheduled for April 15th in Juarez. Has anyone done the sleeve with Dr.Rodriguez or planning to in April??

I'm scheduled the 14th with dr Venezuela at MBC. I'm super excited & a little nervous. I have read a few times that these 3 things are a MUST to bring, so I thought I'd share.

Gas Ex Thin Strips

Lip Balm

Comfy Pillow ( colored pillow sheet so you don't forget it) hospitals use all white

I've heard the gas is pretty bad and the Gas ex is a life saver. You are also very dry mouthed so the lip balm will help. A comfy pillow is everything when you are stuck in bed. I'm adding in baby wipes incase I can't shower right away!

Wow 19 days and counting down Tijuana here I come!! Dr. E Ortiz doing my surgery! Arriving April 14th!!

My dr takes care of all that. I sent the paperwork, he signs it and scans it back. Dr. Illan and Omar are very customer service oriented. That is an understatement actually.

Hi

Are you getting nervous! I am so very nervous.

I am getting nervous. I start pre-op diet Monday. It seems everyone will be at the Marriott. I will be at Hotel Lucerna. Elanasal perhaps we can keep in touch and encourage one another...

I will also be at Marriott. My dats are a little different now. I arrive at Marriott on Sunday April 13 and leave the 19th.

Anyone else there at this time? I hope to connect with at least one other surgery patient as I know it makes it easier to get through things. I'm sure we will meet others at the hospital though.

liquids start for me on the 1rst.... How about everyone else? I am really dreading this part!

I have chosen premier Protein as it is easy and premixed.... What are others using??

Also what have been your recommendations for pre op Vitamins ?

We all want to be healthy as we can be for surgery!

Rhoste,

I arrive the 12th and I will be at Mi Doctor and the Marriott. I am going to try unjury protein as I have heard good things about it and I'm not too keen on the stuff I have sampled so far. I start my diet Friday and oddly enough it is what I am looking forward to the least, but I will survive As for vitamins don't laugh...but Flintstones.

I will be at Marriott, April 5-10 Dr Lopez look me up

Hello All,

Man, it seems like everyone will be there right after I leave. I'm going to be there from the 4th to the 7th, staying at the Marriott, surgery on 4/4 with Dr. Ortiz.

I don't know if my cell phone will work out there, but if you guys want to text insecurities and encouragement, or meet for a day trip to a nearby pharmacy, please let me know:

My cell number is 510-778-3049, that's good for texting too.

I would really like to keep in touch and encourage each other – it’s really great that we’re both in the same city. – text me 702.539.5397
