Surgery Scheduled!!!



Recommended Posts

I'm so excited yesterday I paid my deposit and booked my tickets to get surgery done in Mexico. In 12 weeks I will be on the losers bench (May 18th). I wish I could go sooner (because 3 months is soooooo long lol) but because of work and not knowing how long it will take to get my passport when I go tomorrow (not going to pay to expedite it) I decided May was best. I had so much anxiety picking flights/airlines and I'm praying seats near me don't fill up. I don't want to cause anyone and discomfort sitting next to me. I travel often for work but it's on smaller planes around Alaska often with open seating so I don't get as anxious. I'm trying not to focus on that much and it's working (until the day I have to fly out) because I am so excited right now about surgery and hoping the next couple of months go fast!!! Whew feels good to be excited and be able to tell people who get it!

@Karmalexia I'm going with Aslimmerme Clinic. They have two different packages I chose the basic one which is $2799. I'll also pay for my meds when there for $150. The premium package includes the meds and a few other things for $3499. So far Anette and Lizette have been amazing to work with and are very responsive to my questions

Totally understand... I'm a single mom to two girls and not only is it important for me to get this done for them but it's even more important that I come home after getting it done

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
