Guest guest Posted January 14, 2011 Report Share Posted January 14, 2011 Hello Mercedes: I'm in Mexicali with dr Aceves,he performed my slevee today January 14 at 10 am, I came out of recovery around 3 pm and I has been awake since then walking inside the hospital, outside the hospital doing what Dr taught me to do it for a full recovery. Check every post and ask any question feel free, BTW here with me are people that had surgery today and are doing execellent full awake, some with minor nausea which are normal, Dr campos has visit me 3 times..... last minute call Dr aceves just passed through the rooms to check that we are all well and if we need anything and answer any question that we may have. One of patien that are here her daughter was 18 years old weighing more than 300 pounds now she is almost 20 year weigh 125 lbs happy had already her first date and will be marry in 6 months. To all my budies thanks for prayers, god touch my hand during surgery and I felling amazing Love you all From: MercedesH <cedeboo92@...> Sent: Fri, January 14, 2011 5:00:18 PMSubject: To Lapband or not to Lapband? Hello all, I'm Mercedes. I'm 18 and needless to say I've struggled with my weight and it has gotten out of control. I'm at the age where body image is crucial and I need to do something about it. I've gone to seminars and I've researched this for years. When my 18th birthday hit I was excited because I was now eligible for the surgery however my insurance does not cover it so I have to pay out of pocket. I was a little skeptical to proceed with Dr. A because he's so cheap and I've heard horror stories about back alley type surgeries and I truly don't want this to be me. So if anyone out there is a post op lapband patient I would love to hear from you. Please feel free to respond. Thanks in advance, Mercedes.
