Shaydi.Laine 237 Posted May 26, 2016 I think maybe she was hoping someone here would say I feel so sorry for you a$1000 is standing in your way of getting surgery let me give it to you... Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App That was my exact thought when I read the OP. "This little brat is begging for money!" Made my blood boil. She clearly can't handle the heat so she'd better stay out of the oven. She is nowhere near ready for surgery. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
buckleysmom 45 Posted May 26, 2016 Physicians abroad are likely more experienced in the balloon procedure because it has only been FDA approved in the US since august of 2015. Therefore, American physicians just haven't had the opportunity to do a lot of these. Having said that, who would provide your follow-ups, med refills or modifications if the surgeon was out of the country. Think twice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Alex Brecher 10,515 Posted May 26, 2016 I hate it when people delete their OPs. @@Alex Brecher Can we do something to stop that from happening?? And can you fix the Op's name, too? She left us an ugly little insult on her way out. THANKS! Since inception, we've allowed members the ability to edit their posts for 28 days. I've changed this to 5 minutes. Also, updated the OP's name. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KristenLe 5,979 Posted May 26, 2016 Worry not my friends! If "byehoes" does get the money, she'll never pass the psych eval.. Unless she lies - which seems to be happening a lot based on some of the threads on here! One person has gone to a different practice to start over because they didn't "pass" her on the initial psych eval. She indicated she now knows how to answer the questions so it won't be an issue. Another said her psychiatrist and psychologist wouldn't do the eval because it was a conflict so she went to someone else - and didn't bother mention she'd been suicidal in the past (not to mention bat shit crazy based on her posts) because "they didn't need to know". I don't really know who they think they're hurting besides themselves. I'm somewhat "normal" and asked for additional therapy/counseling for emotional eating.

Threetimesacharm 1,400 Posted May 26, 2016 The surgeons have MORE experience?? Hi allyrenee11, Have you considered surgery in Tijuana Mexico? The cost is lower and the surgeons have more experience. http://teammx.bariatricpal.com/pricing/ Please contact me if you are interested. Just because one reads a statement on the internet does NOT mean that it is true or factual. PLEASE research, research and then research if considering going outside the USA for bariatric surgery--or any surgery. More experienced???? REALLY????? SMH, SMH, SHM. PRAYERS GOING UP FOR---ALL OF US. Well he would know as he is a coordinator for BP Mexico. And yes the number of surgeries they have performed is often time much greater than surgeons elsewhere. So yes HIS statement is true and factual! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
