No the bitchyness makes me uncomfortable.

Whoa dude, :confused1:

I just wanted to give a friendly nudge to remind you of this post of yours from the other thread about "leaks and infections". I guess this comment about bitchyness occured when the conversation was getting a little heated.

Let's just try to give cg as much support as we do anyone else without any judgement. I'm sure she's read the stuff on here about her doc.

I wasn't trying to be bitchy at all. I was trying to be supportive by suggesting someone go with her. Mexico is a dangerous place these days, whether your having surgery or not.

Bitchy wasn't exactly the word I would use, but it sounded a little condescending. Thanks for clarifying.

cg, I do hope you're able to find a surgery buddy. If I were having surgery in Mexico I probably would be on my own too so I would definitely have to rely on the support of forum members in case any problems came up. Maybe you can find someone who is scheduled for surgery after you so they will be well enough to check on you after you're out of the OR. In turn, you could be a surgery buddy to someone who is scheduled to be in the OR before you so that you can check on them. You get the idea...:confused1:

Keep us up to date on your progress.

I made a lot of good friends instantly when I arrived. Being nervous makes people bond quickly..... there will be people just like you there.

Thanks for the look out. I have been to plenty of places on my own; Mexico included! As some of you said earlier; I thought it would be nice to meet up with someone who was having the surgery the same day...maybe I will call Sandy.

P.S. Please no scare tactics...I have already read the threads about the leaks and infections; thanks for the heads up!

Oh.... good idea. I bet Sandy could connect you with some people that will be down there when you are.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
