Hi, I am new to this whole process but looking at having surgery in Mexico due to the cost differences. Can any of you tell me about your experiences if you have had surgery in Mexico. Where did you go? Who was your surgeon?

Thank you,

Hello Psychicgreer

 I had surgery in Tijuana and had a great experience. My Dr was Fernando Garcia the cost was $4500. Hospital was florence. Everything went well, I am two months out and 40Lbs down. I have had no complications and hardly any pain from surgery. I was sleepy after surgery and that was about it. You can let me know if you have any questions.

I just had surgery n TJ and the experience was great. My surgery was on the 19th of Dec. w/ Alejandro Lopez at the hospital Vida. I have not weighed myself since I've been back home. I want to weigh myself the 1st of January. The cost was $4600. I stayed at the Marriott. The hospital rooms were unbelievable. It looked nothing like a hospital. It looked more like a suite with a kitchen, living room area and dining room area. The Dr. And everyone involved were very amazing.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
