zeniada 9 Posted August 28, 2010 Hello everyone!! I'm back and banded! had a wonderful trip to Mexico had a wonderful time at the hospital everyone was super nice and took care of me very well. Aside from shoulder pain I am doing very well. I was expecting much worse but Praise God I am not having nausea, abdominal pain or anything else. I do have mild port pain only when i cough or laugh. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ravyn 0 Posted August 28, 2010 congrats! It should be smooth sailing from here! May I ask, will you be getting your fills in Mexico? I am in Los Angeles County and am interested in a different fill doctor. Someone else suggested Mexico, but I am unfamiliar with traveling in and out of TJ for medical needs. I really want a doctor who does that fluoroscopy with the fill to make sure it's the correct amount. However I'd like to do it for a reasonable price. Was wondering if you share the contact information for your doctor in Mexico? I wish you all the best! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PrincessErin 64 Posted August 29, 2010 Welcome back, Zeniada!! I wondered how you were doing! I'm glad you came through your surgery ok. I hope the gas pain subsides quickly but I have heard that shoulder pain can last for a while. I wonder why the shoulder is where it ends up hurting? I can't wait to read about all your success!
