The story I read was " My Mexico experience" from girliegreeneye.

I had surgery in Mexico, was not interested in playing games with my insurance. I have heard of lots of people "padding" their weight to get qualified. Stash rolls of quarters in your bra!

For every Mexico horror story, there is an American horror story!

This post of mine got way out of hand lol

I agree, with the horror stories. People get the wrong leg worked on, different procedures done that weren't suppose to be done all the time here. Gauze and surgical tools are left in people a lot.

I have one question about going to another country for surgery. Did the flight home worry anyone? I think of the pressure in the ear drums that pop. I didn't know if it made the surgical area more sore?

I had no issues flying home.

I am also very close to the cut-off for BMI. I am at 35 but since I have terrible sleep apnea (75 events an hour) I qualify. I wonder if you ate a bunch of salty pop-corn the night before your appointment you would retain enough Water to get to 40? I know I can put on 5 pounds of water weight easy. Good luck.

I had no issues flying home either. Like I said I only took one day off work after my surgery I didn't think it was that painful or bad afterwards.
