Wondering if anyone from Canada has gone to Mexico for a sleeve? How was your experience?

Please do. I've registered for surgery in Ontario but it can take over a year to get it done. Don't think I'm willing to wait that long. Please let me know how it all goes and who did your surgery. Thanks so much.

I registered in montreal 6 months ago. They didn t even call me for to see the doctor yet. Lol

I was tired of waiting so i decided to go to Mexico. De Quinones 4k.

I will claim it in my taxes (including the airfaire) so it will cost me about 3000$ at the end, that s how i decided...

Dr quinons. I m in contact with india the patient coordinator. She s very nice. All communications trough email (you can call here too), she answers question very quickly like 10 min.

I made a deposit trough paypal 1000$. And the balance 3k trought a bank draft when i get there.

Dlying friday, get there at 12:35, they will pick me up at the airport, get the surgery in the afternoonn and my flight back is monday 1pm...

Very easy...

I will tell you about the experince that when i get back...

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
