It Was Worth it..... *

  • Name: dee
  • Age: 53
  • Surgery: Gastric Sleeve
  • Surgery date: January 9th, 2015
  • Testimonial date: June 17th, 2015
  • Surgeon: Dr. Almanza
I had my GS on Jan 9th with Dr Almanza. The surgery went good no problems. After I returned to Florida the first tom months was very tough. I had major neck and shoulder pain, which I was told it was gas, It finally disappeared. I also had something called foaming, which no one heard about. This is when you may eat to fast and continually have your saliva build up., I had to spit every all the time it was awful. Everything I smelled made me wanna vomit, even brushing my teeth, Finally after a period of 2 months everything just stopped. I lost about 55 pounds and really happy I had the surgery, I had many reservation about having the surgery in Mexico but it all worked out fine, not to mention I had three friends before to have the same surgery in Mexico same doctor.
