For those who had surgery in Mexico...

I went by myself. The doctor's office staff took great care of me, I was never scared, and over all it was a lot easier not having to worry about someone else while I was there. They took me back to the airport and I went home. Quick and easy.

My mother went with me, but I was originally going to go alone. Many people were there alone, and they had GREAT support from all staff.

Took my boyfriend, he is a good nurse... Good luck precious

I took my little sister with me but I saw many women who were there all by themselves. If I had to, I could put a bra on all by myself but I had my sister help me and carry my bag for me. It is doable by yourself from my point of view.

I went by myself. I didn't want to have to worry about someone else's boredom on top of my own healing. You meet other women/men having these procedures too so you won't be bored and usually the staff in Mexico are beyond amazing.

I went with my husband, but it would have been doable alone. The staff is very accommodating and helpful.

I went by myself and honestly glad I did. The staff will take wonderful care of you and you don't have to worry about the comfort or boredom of a guest.
