Thank you - my mom joined me. She is a retired nurse. I was really just planning on heading down alone, but I had too many co-workers and friends freak out that I invited her just to shut them up. It was worth the frequent flyer miles. ;-)

Dr. Jose Rodriguez Villarreal at the Star Medica. The people were very nice, biggest hang up was getting the shuttle. The cab union leader is friends with the cops union there and they keep giving him a rough time about where he can park when he's picking up people.

The facility is good. I was wondering why there rates of infection were so much lower there than in the US. I figured it out when I arrived. Huge room. No roommate. They mop the place every hour. Not as much equipment in the room as there is in the average American hospital, so their are fewer surfaces to clean. My friend's wife had barbaric surgery a few years ago in the US, and her she did get a horrible site infection, not from the procedure but from the facility.

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
