Hello Everyone,
I posted a while back, but went back into a shell after a couple responses. I finally decided to pull the trigger and going for the switch in May.
I had a VSG in April 2012, and a weight of around 240 and dropped to almost 145. However, I have kept gaining weight back and am around 210-212.
I had a few questions for people who had the switch only (probably after regain).
1. How has the weight loss been for most people with just the switch portion only?
2. Would you think getting a re-sleeve would be better along with the switch?
3. For those who went to Mexicali, how was the experience?
4. What do you do about the passports and other important things while in surgery over there if traveling alone?
5. On the way back are you allowed to bring any medications back with you to the States?
Thank you all for the wonderful advice that I have received here.
