Hi Everyone!
I am thinking about getting my surgery in Cancun because it is the closest hospital to my North Carolina home. I am hoping there are others that went to Cancun who can answer my questions.
1. I have read that the doctors are not very "giving" with pain meds. I am worried about that.
2. If there are complications with the surgery when I get back to the USA, will Blue Cross Blue Shield cover the cost?
3. How well did you deal with the flight back? Did you have problems sitting? Any pain?
If anyone is planning on getting the gastric sleeve in Cancun in the next 2-4 months I would love to hear from you. Anyone from Raleigh?
Thank you!
