UTAH: Looking for recommendation for a post-op doctor in Utah
feller2005 posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
I am looking for recommendations for a local Doc in Utah. I had surgery in Mexico about a year ago. I have lost all my weight but I am just not feeling well. Low engery, vertigo and headaches. I have had a hard time finding a GP who understands how this surgery may affect me. I have no idea if how I'm feeling is related to the surgery or not but feel like its important to have doc who understands how it may affect me. Any suggestions for a doctor you love? -
Did you have surgery in Colorado? Mine was done in Mexico and I'm having problems finding a doctor because of this. Anybody in particular that you love at the BMI clinic?

I am looking for a doctor here in Utah who is willing to see a patient that had surgery over a year ago. I am not feeling well but can't find a local doctor who is familiar enough with the surgery and possible complications. Sent from my SM-G930T using BariatricPal mobile app

Who is your surgeon? I'm getting sleeved on the 30th with Dr Illan. I'm getting nervous as well. I keep thinking that maybe this is a little to drastic. Sent from my SM-G930T using the BariatricPal App -

How has surgery changed family life.
feller2005 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm a young mother of 4 with a handsome husband. I'm curious how this surgery has affected your family life? Do you make two different meals? Do you still eat out with family? I've prepared myself the best I know how but I also want to make sure my husband isn't blindsided by my new eating habits. How can I prepare him? I want to help manage his expectations as well as mine. And be able to give him a time frame for expected results, not in terms of weightloss but in regards to how our family life may change if I have surgery.

Benefits of self paying in the states vs mexico
feller2005 posted a topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Im wondering if your are self paying what are the benefits to having surgery states side. I'm assuming you get post-op care for x amount of months. If you do the surgery in Mexico is post-op all on you, examples figuring out diet, local support groups. I know I'll need the emotional support and chatting with others about their experience to be successful and stay motivated. So I wondering if I should pay the extra money for local support.
