END OF OCTOBER/FIRST OF NOVEMBER SURGERIES/BUDDIES NEEDED



Recommended Posts

I am having my surgery on October 30. I am looking for some support buddies who will be having surgery about the same time that I am. I am single, my kids are grown and I have no support to back me up. THANKS for the future help friends!!!!surgery.png?ts=1413148906[/url]bodyweight.png?ts=1413148906[/url]

I was going to go with Dr. Lopez but he is in Guadalajara the last week of October, so I am going with his wife, Dr. Osuna

They both seemed equally qualified. I've watched all their videos online and would be happy with either.

I'm having my gastric sleeve on nov 6. In CA. Do you have someone going with you? I hear most people going to MX go stay somewhere close during post op? Mine is a 1-2 day inpatient but I'm a single mom and I am going to stay as long as possible with 24 hr care. Not a lot of support on my end either. Sure makes it harder. Two friends support this and neither are around.

Hi, Im tentatively scheduled for November 10, provided insurance approves my procedure. I have been taking pictures preop and trying different supplements to find out which ones I like best. I wish the best of luck to you.

I'm having surgery with Dr. Lopez in Tijuana on October 21st. Like you, I am going by myself with no support person. The only part I worry about is the flight back.

Packerfan, huh? I won't hold that against you! ;-) I'm having my surgery on 10/29, the day before you! I have support at home but would definitely like to have some surgery buddies!

I'm in Fort Worth, TX & scheduled for 11/10. I've got my 2 adult daughters as support for me and you can have one of them--they're bugging me with too much help! Just kidding--I love that they both want to take care of me but I was a single mom from the time they were in early teens so I learned to be independent--too independent they think! It does help that they both have nursing degrees and one is working as a home health nurse. So I'll have awesome help in my recovery.

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
