Recommended Posts

I'm looking into it too. Its so complicated to find a place you can trust... It so much less expensive though. Hopefully this gets more replies soon

I'm thinking of going during the last week of October. So our dates are really close. I'm still deciding on clinics. Which one are you going to?

Hi! I'm looking at ERDEM as well. I found another clinic called Irmet and it's 3900 with them. Finding reviews and information/research on these clinics is not the easiest thing. I'm nervous about going to Turkey too. When are you planning on going?
I was at erdem hospital i did my sleeve at 25 december it was great

I am currently waiting for surgery-in less than two hours. I am having surgery in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia with a surgeon that came highly recommended by Australians and Brits. We currently live in China so we were traveling here on winter holiday SO it did make sense to come here. Cost of my surgery was just $6700 or 5850 Euros-which included everything, but not travel expenses, but again we were already coming here so to me I don't include that in my expenses.

Hi Guys,

I'm booked to have my sleeve done in Istanbul at Turkiye Hastanesi hospital from Dr Erol Vural. Just wondered if anyone has been here before?

I stumbled across an article about a 25 year old guy from England who died last December after having a sleeve in Turkey and now I'm nervous as hell 😔

Any success stories about surgery in Turkey would be most welcome.

Thanks in advance

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
