Thank you JpWill, I'm just trying to get as much info as I can before making my final decision. Did you use a coordinator or direct with him?

Walk walk walk. It will go away soon. I think nearly all of mine was gone by Wednesday afternoon. I had my surgery Tuesday afternoon. Gas x strips help. But nothing helps like walking.

For everyone going to Dr. Ramos Kelly, you will be very impressed with his care , the hospital and the nursing staff. The people here really do care. I Am a surgeon I the US , and can genuinely say I have seen and re diced better care here than in the States. You are in great hands.

 

Thanks Jpwill, the gas pain does go away. The walking, Gas x , and heating pad for me through that rough period.

I too used Dr Kelly at Oasis of Hope. I would do it again in a heart beat. Now this is just me and everyone has their own experiences....going to Mexico was absolutely no wait at all, not even a car in sight. Coming back took us 20 minutes with a medical pass. I was up walking next morning as we hadn't slept in about 24 hours and was just wore out. Flight in from Ohio...I did walk alot. At the first sign of a little pain between the shoulder blades, gas x strip and walk. You will meet lots of people in your walks. Dr Kelly came to my hotel twice. He told me I did not have to crush my meds with the sleeve, so I didn't and was fine. As for meds, I quit taking pain meds the next morning after surgery. The groginess I felt was worse than the pain. I also booked directly with him. You get a better leak test at a different hospital. Name escapes me right now. Good luck...best thing I have done for myself.

Thanks Measureofme & Cidmor...It's great to hear all the Info & the positives. It amazes me though how everyone mentions the gas...it must be awful! I don't think I will like that part at all. I already have gas issues and more doesn't sound pleasing...lol!

Actually, I was blessed... I slept through the worst of it when I was coming out of the anesthesia. I had very little if any gas pain after the first four hours. Some people do, some don't! Just better to be prepared and you have to walk regardless. :)

      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.
