Hi all....just wondering about the Water in Mx? You always hear not to drink the water, but I know we have to drink water while we are there not to mention the broth that may have water and our support person.....any experience with that or suggestions?

I believe they give you bottled Water in the hospital. I know lots of people that go there and they drink bottled water. :)

broth is probably safe because it is cooked. Kind of like boiling your Water in emergency situations.

Stick to bottled Water, and don't forget to use it when you brush your teeth too.

The following has a good article.

My family and I were there for 5 days. We bought bottled Water, but forgot to carry it with us a few times.

I drank the water from the restaurant, and used the hotel/hospital water to brush my teeth. No issues,

Everything was fine. Cancun caters to tourists, so maybe they're extra careful!

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
