October 13 - Hospital Mi Doctor in Tijuana, Mexico
Livelaughlove2014 replied to Livelaughlove2014's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
Yes it has been a super emotional 2 years of my life. Deciding to do this was my last resort before going to another rounds of ivf and 40k. Its really not so much of the money but how hopeful and emotional i get for each try. Good that you are successful with clomid did that but didnt work for me. Good that insurance will pay for your surgery my insurance will not cover since i dont have other health issues. How long are you staying in the hospital i have read some are out patient i would be scared. -

Livelaughlove2014 replied to Livelaughlove2014's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
You must have low bmi not to have a preop mine is 5 days of high protein then 2 days clear liquid. Ill be there 4 days but will stay in san diego for a few more days just incase. I live in alaska a long travel. Im doing band to sleeve. Band was not working out for me anymore lost 60 pounds so im moving on with the sleeve. Mostly its because i want to get pregnant that i resorted to sleeve. I had 3 unsuccessful ivf's already. -

Scheduled Surgery in Tijuana!
Livelaughlove2014 replied to KristenVSG2014's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I can totally relate to you. I too will have my surgery in tijuana on oct. 13th 5 days after my 38th bday with dr. Valenzuela at hospital mi doctor through mexico bariatric. Have had 3 failed ivf's and my main reason for getting sleeved is to hopefully get rid of my pcos and get pregnant naturally. I was banded in 2007 lost 60lbs and it stopped working for me. So now im at 175'ish and 5'2 with super low self esteem. I want to feel good too. Im tired of shopping and finding nothing to wear everyday because it all doesnt look good. Im excited and scared as all of us are but my best friend will come with me to take care of me and help me through it. Im most scared of the preop, leak test and drain removal more than surgery itself. Good luck to us. We can do this! -

Chellede - ill wait as long as healthy to try naturally. My nk cells are also high so i need do infusion to keep elevated so hopefully with the weight loss and that ill get pregnant. Why i chose revision to sleeve? The band is not working for me have been stuck to 175'ish for 2 years now and I'm 5'2 with bmi of 34. Im scared yet very excited. What I'm most excited for is to feel sexy to want to try naturally. I have such low self esteem that i dont want to even try a lot of times. ???????? -

Chellede - buddy! Im so glad to i found someone almost same age that i can relate in regards to failed ivf and praying sleeve will work its magic. Good luck with your insurance. Because my surgery is self pay i have just been coordinating with mexico bariatric's coordinator who lives here in the states. My doctor wants me to start preop a week before and once i get to tijuana all my test will be done day of surgery. Im also having my band taken out so its a revision.
