slojo 150 Posted September 20, 2012 I went to mexico for the price of the surgery. I have a low bmi compared to most and insurance wouldn't touch me here in the states, and the cost in the states can be up to 3-4 times as much. It was a fun experience, we stayed in San Diego, had a good time.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
