My Sleeve With Dr Garcia

[Glendaaus 20]

Well right about now I am sitting in the Marriott in Tijuana ..... who would have thought.

I started this all about 11 years ago when I had the lapband put in. For about 6 of the 10 years it did its job and I managed to loose weight although had trouble maintaining.

Last July 2011, I started thinking that all wasn´t good with the band - just a feeling....so I started on this road and started investigating......had my eroded lapband out on 24 January this year here in Canada. The process to then get the sleeve here was very stressful for me as I live about 4.5 hours away from the hospital and clinic and needed to attend at least once to twice a month.

About a month ago I woke up one day and said to my husband, I AM GOING TO Mexico, he couldn´t believe his ears. I got on the phone - booked and here I am all done.

I decided on Dr Garcia - I could never have made a better decision, the hospital was clean, the staff and nurses exceptional and right now I feel like a million bucks 3 days out. I asked Dr Garcia if he actually did anything to me - that is how good I felt. I had no issues - only positives all round. I know first hand that I would not have got this trestment in Australia or Canada in the public health system - the staff do what they can there - but there is just no comparison with how it was for me these last few days.

Please feel free to contact me via this site and I will give you my email.

I felt the same way - I asked Dr. Garcia if he actually did the surgery because I felt absolutely NO PAIN at all when it was over. I kept looking down at my bandages for confirmation. Today is my 3 month surgiversary and I am 49 pounds down!!

Doing good. You are exactly a week ahead of us I think. I lost 18 pre op and so far have lost 10 since surgery. My wife lost 8 pre op and 7 since.
