Hi! I am mexican 23 years old and my bmi was 41 before the operation. I choosed Gastric Sleeve in Mexico with doctor Henry Mansur.
I took this road because last year I was in Europe and even when I changed my eating habits and I did a lot of exercise: I couldn't manage to loose more than 5 lbs. I really love mexican food, but I realized that it would be easier to cut it of my life after this months away from it.
So I came back from Europe 29 March and my operation was programmed at March 31. I was very sad because hubby wanted to eat a hole mexican buffet in front of me. But I did it well till the pre and during the medical process.
Everything was ok with my analysis and today I'm 5 days post op. The only problem is that I feel a lot of pain in my back on the left. I hope is nothing serious, but still I'm terrified. I called my doctor and he recommended taking a shot of Alin Depot and pain medication. And if that doesn't stop the pain we will meet tomorrow.
And also my face is covered with pimples. Is this normal ?
Thanks. This space keep me very motivated.
