I'm 5 "5" hw was 263 cw 242 surgery is on the 2nd of nov. I have sleep apnea, back and knee pain. Hbp and migraines. So excited to be getting this surgery. Friday is my pre op and I start liquids on the 19th.

I am 62 yrs, height 5 feet 6, weight 230, BMI just over 35. Have been in low carb diet for ten days, start pre op diet 10/19, surgery 11/2 with Ariel Ortiz in Tijuana. Went for a visit and consult several weeks ago and was satisfied by what I saw and heard. Dr. Ortiz spent 30 minutes with us and also met with nutritionist and internal med physician. Nervous anyway!

Seeing Dr Barnes out of Plano.

NMGAZ,

I am excited for u, I wish I was brave enough and had a friend to go to mexico since I am a self pay and it is costing me a small fortune, I am 54 , 200 lbs and only 4ft 11. My date is Nov 10 also with a hiatal hernia repair which I see ablot of people have. I wonder if weight is the culprit for hernia? Any way best of luck and was happy to read I am not the only person over 50 who wants this.

Munc0911 - while visiting the clinc I met two women who had travelled there alone for surgery the next day. I guess this is not unusual, and the driver brings patients from the San Diego Airport and transports between clinic and Marriott. Hotel offers appropriate foods for surgical patients and is accustomed to their stays.

I'm hoping for Nov 17. I'm in Houston, Tx.

I was informed yesterday that my insurance was approved for 11/19. I was a little bit scared after I got the call from my doctors office to schedule surgery and my final pre-op and all post-op appointments along with pre-surgery labs and X-rays but I am keeping my eye on the prize and looking forward to living a healthier life.

I still can't settle on if I'm excited or terrified! :) Eye on the prize for sure. Good luck and congrats getting your date!
