I went to Mexico all alone - I didn't even have a patient coordinator. I was alone during the entire procedure, but then I became the popular one as the next day's 5 patients started to filter in and stare at the "newly banded girl" in wonder. They had hundreds of questions, but the next day was their turn. Everyone was so nice, and by the time they were all out of surgery we were one happily banded family. You'll meet buddies in the hospital since most surgeons book several surgeries a day. Good luck, keep a good sense of humor, and write as soon as you're able.

Delarla,

Thanks for the encouraging words about going to Mexico alone. I am going alone for my surgery next Thursday. I am happy to hear the possiblity of other people being there for the same procedure. It will be nice to have some support even if it's from strangers.

Lacy, I read in your profile you are from Auburn. I am from Dudley...just down the road. I am not quite at the surgery stage yet....possibly in April or May. I am being banded at U-Mass.

Good Luck to you and I'll be thinking of you.
