Hi everybody, I´m Dr. José Trasviña, or just Dr T., Internal Medicine Doctor, Board Certified, I´m the Internist of the Tijuana BariatricPal Surgeons Staff. I´m here to help you clarify any doubt about medical conditions, medications interactions, (non surgical questions, those should be answered by your surgeon preferably), preoperatively (via email), before surgery once you are in the hospital, and after surgery, to prevent you from having any medical complication. :)

Britt: Your own physician´s clearance in town is very valuable, and bring as many previous tests that you might have done in the past (EKG´s, Chest Xrays, Mammograms, Blood tests, etc), they will be useful as a baseline status... But given that you´re having your surgery done in a different country you need to get cleared by a different physican, to reevaluate you, it´s a federal standard... But, if you see it positively, it´s a good thing, I´ve discovered tons of things in patients and initiated treatments for some medical conditions that were unknown until then...

Kimmie: It´s very personal, some patients take less than a week, others take a month... It all depends on the previous physical condition of the person, and let´s not forget that tiredness might be confused with some other organic untreated issues, like hypothyroidism, depression, or a side effect of the medication you´re one (specially pain medications).

      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.
