I went to Tijuana mexico in May and have had NO issues, No infections had no leaks had no issues so all of the scary things really do exist but with inexperienced surgeons and hospitals, I had my surgury in a US/Mexican government owned hospital for medical tourism so they follow all of the US standards and only let qualified surgeons perform the surgury. I paid 9400 for the sleeve 7 months ago however the price has gone down to like 8500 since. Seriously dont be scared to go out of the country!!! It was a better experience there than in the USA! If you have questions please ask. I was scared to go at first, but i would do it again in a heartbeat now.
When did you have your surgery? You have lost a lot ofweight....
