gastric sleeve plication in mexico, help?
tmo replied to vickie's topic in Gastric Plication Surgery Forum
I had my surgery with Dr. Ortiz. I have absolutely no complaints. One of the doctors there even has called a few times to check up and see how I am doing. I would recommend OCC. -
Unexpected Complication From Plication Surgery
tmo replied to Zanthina's topic in Gastric Plication Surgery Forum
That sounds scary. Is there any tests that we can have done to see if there is an issue? I was also told nothing about this kind of thing happening. -
I am 6 weeks since my plication. The last 4 days my stomach makes lots of weird noises. it is not painful just sounds weird. Any one else had this before?

I had my plication done on dec. 2 and can't believe how slow the wight loss is. I lost more weight on the 2 week pre op diet than I have the last for weeks. I have only lost 8 lbs in 4 weeks. I dont understand why, I can only eat very small portions and only at meal times. I added my calories at about five hundred a day and have started exercising. This doesn't make any sense. Did I waste my money, it seems everyone else loses weight real fast on here, starting to get very depressed.

Thanks for all the replies. Haven't lost a pound in 2 weeks, but reading these helps to know others have been through this and know how it feels. Your comments help a lot.

Undecided, which Dr. do you recommend and why?

I had the plication done with Dr .Ortiz 4 weeks ago and I would go back there again. Its still a non invasive surgery I wouldn't worry about being in a hospital. -
recovery time for plication surgery and return to work
tmo replied to debby01's topic in Gastric Plication Surgery Forum
The recovery is quite fast I was even back out curling 3 weeks after my surgery. I didn't think I would even be able to play the whole game, but it actually felt good, helped get some gas out of my stomach and felt better.
