Anyone traveling to Tijuana Mexico alone?

Anyone need a support person?

I am traveling alone......would love to connect with others we can be each other's support.

planning May /June

I'll be arriving June 11 surgery date June 12 and I'll be returning home the 16th!

Where are you having your surgery? That's my date also. Dr. Jose Rodriguez.

I'm using Dr. Garcia and he operates a hospital CER

I will be having it at Florence Hospital with Dr Mario Camelo on the 2nd of June . The long wait will be over for me then!

@KC VSG, what hospital are you going to? I'm going with longtermVSG (@JL Prado surgical center) and am planning to have my surgery on June 11 or 12 with Dr. Maytorena.

I'm scheduled on May 28th with Dr. Ariel Ortiz at OCC. Excited!! A little worried too.

I wish I'm done ! 2 June seems to far , will you be flying inn ?

I used bariatricpal as my coordinators, I didn't want to worry about anything...they did it all, transportations, medical fees, long distance calls and wifi, and this guys and my surgeon staff they were always taking care of me.

The reason they worry about dvt when flying after surgery is due to prolonged sitting. Try and walk as much as possible on the flights! Get up every time you can! Try and get a isle seat and walk up and down the isle every hour 1/2 or so! Also change your seating position rotate crossed legs stretch legs out in the isle or under the seat in front of you etc.... Keep them moving! Good luck! Stay moving and you'll be fine!
