I believe they do. I use Priceline and sign up sp they can alert you when the price drops.

also remember to check some smaller budget airlines individually. I wound up getting the best price and flight by booking directly through Jet Blue.

I'm going alone (2/11 date with Dr. Ariel Ortiz & staying at the Marriott). I obsess over the little things . . .e.g. we have lifting restrictions after surgery so picking up my suitcase in the hotel room? Pack light! Super light, and use a rolling suitcase.

I live in Southern Cali so I'm lucky in that a good friend is driving me down to the airport where they'll pick me up to head across the border. She's also picking me up afterwards.

I actually like the idea of going solo. I don't have to worry or focus on anyone else - just me!

I agree. With you I went alone and I liked it better than having to worry about someone else while I am recovering I did fine while there

I went to TJ alone & had no problems or worries. I was actually taken wetter care of there than some of the hospitals I've been to in the US. Everyone was very informative & hospital & recovery center were very clean. The Dr's, Nurses & staff were great!!! Best experience I've had where surgery was involved.

I might have to go alone if we can not get a sitter to take care of our twin boys. Is it hard to go solo, I want to use dr Fernando Garcia.< /p>

I am going alone March 22 to Garcia thru Ready4Achange and I am so excited... Figuring out flights is a pain! (Huge expense to figure into budget for times needed) Does anyone know if MiHospital has WiFi?

I have seen many posts that say that the hospital and hotel both have free Wi-Fi

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
