Thank you Japeyez. One day at a time, with God, Prayers and as Positive Attitude.

I showed two surgeons here in FL my XRay "Leak Test" from TJ both agreed that there was so much inflammation and with the obstruction of the JP Drain that it was impossible to determine that there...

Well the issue is that its not an easy fix. They cant just suture it because it can just cause more holes/leaks. The first step in treating it, is allowing the stomach to rest. So I was NPO, had a...

I wasnt repling to LittleLadyRock directly it was a general statement on what continues to happen whenever I voice what has happened to me.

Not on a computer. Yes there are misspelled words. Some people are quick to question intelligence over misspelled words.

The only reason his numbers have decreased is because of all the media attention. Otherwise, hed still be doing 15 surgeries, jat like he did when i was there and the reason for my complications....

They'll most likely blame us for not following "post op instructions/diet"
I never even had the opportunity to progress in my deit.
I was hospitalized 7 days post op (4 are spent in Mexico)
I...

Yes. Cuz that's WLA rebuttal. Let's take the fact that 2 ex employees came forward. How about myself and 16 other people who have come forward with complications. Serious complications? Are we fake?...

I put myself out there. Because I would not have gone if someone had spoken out about their complications.
It can happen to anyone!
WLA disappears ones you tell them of your complications.

I would recommend to change your surgeon. It's not worth the risk.
I had surgery 6/2/15, 28 years old, and HEATHY.
I now have a hole in my stomach. It's been HELL.
While I was there (In Mexico)...

Thank you Ann.
I'm not trying to talk negatively or scare anyone or discourage anyone from making a life changing decision.
I'm sharing my personal experience, everyone's experience is different,...

If there is one thing that I strongly urge anyone who is considering surgery is to please thoroughly research Leaks after gastric sleeve. It's NOT AN EASY FIX. It can take MONTHS. I had surgery with...

If you send me your email I'll sent pictures of the diet plan JTribby

Symptoms I felt: I was extremely fatigued, no energy, unable to drink water without it being very uncomfortable and low grade fevers.

Surgical risks can happen both in and out of the U.S.

Unfortunately, the leak test is done inaccurately. My leak went undetected and everything seemed fine.
The nurses give you double doses of antibiotics, nausea medication and pain medication into...

This post was very insightful and detailed.
Thank you so much for this. My surgery is scheduled for June 2nd and I cannot wait to get it done!

Nope. Not at all.

I do not want to spend more than 1 day in the hospital.
Most doctors leave people inpatient no more than 2 days anyways.
I don't know what the big deal is.
11 days until I leave to TJ woohoo!

I'm scheduled for Surgery with Dr. Almanza. Like I have stated before, everyone's experience is different and vsg is a tool to help you achieve you're weightloss goals. If you rely solely on the...

I'm so glad to hear everything went well for you!
Thank you for sharing your experience.
I have been very anxious about the surgery now that my date is approaching. I'm not second guessing my...

I picked the date and secured it by making my $250 deposit. Like CryBaby mentioned, they require front and back copies of your debit/credit card along with a copy of your ID. You have to complete the...

Thank you!
I've already started changing my eating habits, cross fit training, strength/resistance training. After surgery, I will continue with my trainer and workouts.
