The nurses Karen & Isabanna are very sweet and they dont speak much English. It's been "muy divertido" (very fun) trying to communicate. Im having a good time lol.

Day after surgery & feeling great! Up every 2 hours all night walking & getting poked

Started this blog at the airport, created it from my phone, so sorry if it doesn't look super great lol. I wanted to keep a record of my journey - or I should say, my adventure - and this seemed like the best idea! http://ileftmystomachintijuana.blogspot.com

I'm here too lol, we're probably neighbors. When I got here, someone else was just leaving. I don't know who but we talked for about a minute, then I wondered if I should know her from on here! -

I don't know about being allowed jewelry, but I chose to leave my wedding ring & earrings at home and thats all the jewelry I normally ever wear. Hospitals usually recommend that you leave valuables at home. I paid in advance with a personal check in US funds. -

I experienced minor issues with Samuels cell phone also - something about all circuits are down. But I had another number that I left a message at and he called back within a minute or two and was there to meet us at baggage claim within about 5-10 minutes of our flight landing (and it landed early). -

Just got done with last minute preparations - finished packing, epi-ladied my legs lol, last minute laundry,etc. I usually like to come home to a nice clean house when I travel, but hubby & kids will be here all week so I'll be lucky if it's still standing when I get home, geesh. -
I would talk to your family doctor. Could be some sort of artery narrowing or blockage, sometimes symptoms are induced by exercise (increased blood flow hindered by narrow passageways).
