I have been getting the daily E mails for several months now. Then I went out and got the the Cook Book that should be on all Banders Christmas wish list. Its Great !!!

Don't forget the Hotel has 24 hr room service. and your post surgery items are FREE. So you go girl and get all the hot/cold tea, frozen pops the Mexian way are sooo good. Anything you can have right now they will bring it to you Free. Oh and before I forget any guest with you gets 10% off all hotel food. The clinic has a watts phone line which means you can call family members in the US for no additional charger. You will also have a phone in your hospital room to call anytime to the US for free. Just ask !!!

If you bring your lap top bring a few movies, most channels on TV are in Spanish. Mickie in Omaha

That is what I got Realize. And I got banded by Dr O July 3 of this year. I would suggest you call who ever you are working with.I was with Lisa and she will be able to tell you or how you go about requesting the band. You know what they are so wonderful if they don't have the answer they will transfer your call to one of the other DRs. There are several in the OCC center that can help you. When are you schedule for your band surgery? Mickie in Omaha

What I want t know is did she loose any weight ??? HAHA Anything is possible. Because my port fliped The DR here is saying once it flips t will flip again. Who knows! Mickie in Omaha

I Called OCC right away that very afternoon. I'm going back Sept 8th and they are going to fix it for me. No charge because I never got a fill. Call OCC they will help you. When did you get bandes? Mine was July 3. I don't know yet what I'm going to do after that. I might just look for a cheap flight and go back to TJ. I just got a new book and was reading last night and the average person needs 3 fills. As for you call OCC they will help you. Mickie in Omaha

How about walking over the border on the way back?? Every post that I read says it takes hours. Is one hour of the day easier like am or pm coming back to the us ? Mickie in Omaha

Hello Need some info on parking at the Border. Where do you park ?? I notice last mo when I was there was a parking lot by Mc Donalds is that safe. Any ideas please share. Thanks Mickie in Omaha

HELP. I have to go back to Dr O and get my part flipet back. So this time I'm going to park at the border and walk across. Any good ideas and where to park and the cost?? Mickie

I just read your instructions for crossing the border. I have a few questions. I notice when I was there last time a parking lot over behind Mc Donalds. Is that open to the public?? Have you heard what they charge?? You said it depends what time of the day the crossing can be busy what time should we stay away from the border. Mickie

Can't you try another Dr. Are there any fill centers.? I'm not going back to the hospital. In fact my husband thinks I should send them the bill for my visit to Mexico to get this fixed. You know what is really funny is I felt the port before I went in and now I can't feel anything there. I hope its not major.

Where do I began I guess Friday the 21. I went in to have a fill. To the local Dr here and when she tried several times to fill it she advised me and showed me it fliped completely over and I would have to have surgery to get it fliped back. There cost $2500.00 I went home called Dr O he called me back right away. Told me he would fix it for no charge. I have to cover the airfare of course. My question to all of you is how can that happed I was told they stitch it in place.? If it would of moved shouldn't I of felt it.? Could the Dr here locally of pushed to hard and moved it? Has anyone else had it flip completely over? Mickie from Omaha
