Tijuana surgery March 21



Recommended Posts

I am very nervous and wish I could share with my family. I know they won't support me in this. My fiancé and I watched videos and he's OK with it now. I'm just scared about the doctor...and hearing that the hospital may be a clinic. Jerusalem Hospital...I wish you the best and really would like for you to keep in touch with me!!!

Hi Carmen.....

At least your fiance supports you. I have heard that Jerusalem is just a clinic. Do you have to stay in a hotel or at the facility? Mine is a huge hospital. .. and they pick me up at San Diego airport then drive me to the hospital then me and my guest stay in a suite at the hospital then take me back to the airport. So Maybe do some more looking into Jerusalem,... try posting it and wait for responses. I'll keep. U up to date with me and my journey. I would love to!

Hi make sure you wear compression socks and continually drink Water through out the flight. The Dr may give you some other form of medication while you are there to prevent blood clots on the way home. Send an email to your Dr and tell them that you are nervous about the 6hr flight do they have any special recommendations. Don't panic

Good morning all!! Happy st pattys day ... 4 days till my surgery date. I'm getting super excited! My flight Is only a little over an hour. So I would do what the others said...talk to your Dr and just ty to give them all the information needed. Stay positive. I'll be flying in Friday morning and surgery later that day. .. I'm just trying to get thru the pre op diet... ugh but I know it's all worth it. !! Thanks again for all the posts and information.

      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'. ???

      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!
