Surgery 3/27/12.. (Nervous)



Recommended Posts

Hello all,

Im scheduled to have surgery later this month with Dr Ortiz in Mexico. I did lots of research and was satisfied with this Dr and his credentials. His facility has also been ICE certified. I was excited and extremely confident until I read some of the complications and struggles that others have gone thru. As of today ( March 1 st) I feel extremely nervous. Anyone else sleeved by Dr Ortiz or later this month.. Feeling somewhat alone, I've only told one person about my surgery date.

Congrats,

I was stuck between him and Dr Ortiz.

I've read very good reviews about him.

Are you traveling alone? I am very excited but can't express myself to family or friends. Just the mention of it starts a negative debate and I refuse to be discourage. Hence the reason for feeling alone .

My Mom is coming with me. My family isn't very happy but I told them I don't care. I am doing this! I am willing to go alone but my Mom won't let me. I've read many post from people that have went alone. They all said it was fine. I wouldn't be worried. Are you going to be at the Mi Doctor Hospital?

Congrats for those going to Mexico. I must say that ya'll truly impress me as I would be more nervous than I am now getting on a plane to do this! Kudos to all of you!

I was seeing a wonderful Dr here in New Jersey but my insurance company was really giving me a hard time. I could no longer ride the emotional roller coaster. After lots of research I decided to go the self pay route. (Mexico)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
