Sunshine, I'm scheduled for surgery on the 16th in Monterray, MX. I'm thankful for this website as it has allayed some of my fears and concerns. I do check in regularly so I'm wondering about the addiction thing. Shawn

I wonder if the lap band adjustment/port is the deal? I'll do some checking tomorrow as well. CPT codes are tricky sometimes. Sula

As I was doing chores around my house and watching the blizzard roll in, a thought came to me. I am going to enjoy the "little black dress" that I've never had. Brought a smile to me and happy thoughts. Hmmm, me in a little black dress! I can go for that!! :clap2: Sula

Oh, I forgot. I didn't go with their airfare as it stated a "major US city"..there are no major cities where I live and so I got a flight for 600 and they are doing a special with a 1000 off. Sula

Hi Judy, I'm going to Dr. Sanchez' on the 15th. I am paying for my own as well but am not financing it with them. My liason is a lady, Ann Marie with Belighter.com. I think she used to be with the organization Ready4Achange.com. Anyway, all you can do is ask. I think they are pretty agreeable. Sula

Hi Pinky, Yep, its Monterray for me. Dr. Sanchez' practice, but he's not doing the surgery. How about you? Sula

Hi all, I'm heading to Mexico for surgery on the 15th, surgery on the 16th. I'm trying to pay attention and get some good advice to make all go smoothly. It is both scary and facinating to hear about others processes with this procedure. Sula

I too am getting close to my surgery date, the 16th. I think that listening (reading) what folks who have been there done that have gone through will be helpful. It has helped me to mentally prepare for what will come. I know that each person deals with this differently but I've taken the outlook that it is the beginning of my journey and it will be an exciting one. Hopefully you will also have some family/friends for support. Best of luck to you. Sula
