I hate to do this but it's so necessary. After all of the foolishness with MBC and my doctor I decided to stay with my doctor. And that should have been the end of it. I received an in box message on FB from Ron the day I landed in San Diego telling me he don't want to lose my business and he will send a driver to pick me up.. I didn't respond. Than I got a phone call from this driver saying he's coming to pick me up where am I. I asked his name and called my coordinator and was told he was the driver from MBC. So again I didn't respond back. Than Ron calls me and tried to use scare tactics. Saying if I didn't go with them he will cancel my hotel and I won't have any place to stay and that he was going to drop me from their FB page. At that point my husband got mad and wanted to talk to him but I wouldn't let him.. I told Ron I wouldn't log back into their FB page if I was paid to. Ron and Debi are both lairs and they are not to be trusted. Debi called me one night at 9pm and said that my doctor lost his certification because he was leaving MBC. Shame on you MBC for having such poor behavior. They may have good doctors at MBC but their administrative team are unprofessional liars. In my opinion.. If you need a good doctor with a creditable team get with me..
Be bless!
the first two days post op I felt really crummy, day 4 I felt more normal. I returned to my desk job in one week- and told no heavy lifting or working out (other than walking) for 6 weeks.
I haven't had much pain at all besides soreness for the first week or two post op, and low energy.

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!! that is really too much!!! I can't wait to hear all about that.

Thank you I'm so excited.. Wait until u see my post how MBC tried to trick me and another girl by trying to send their driver for us.
Britt, I dont know what they put in my IV when I was in the hospital but they gave me Mavidol SL to bring home.. I've only needed one but that maybe because I had single incision.. And not the 5 incisions.
Hi there!
Way to go on taking these steps!
I was sleeved 5 weeks ago .... I experienced some gas pains that caused some vomiting .... But it passed within 12 hours of surgery .... I was still sleepy from surgery so I would wake with pain, vomit and fall back asleep ..... So it wasn't too bad.
After the 12 hours ... It was smooth sailing! You shouldn't lift anything heavy (over 20 lbs) for 6 weeks .... I was able to do my desk work after the first week ....
Since you said your job is physical I would recommend 3 weeks off so you can rest and get your fluids in .... But if you are required to lift heavy things then you will need the 6 weeks off.
Good LUck!

Hi,
I am wondering if anyone has had any experience with specialized bariatrics. I scheduled my surgery for 3/17/15. Sent in my deposit(check was cashed). I tried emailing to confirm prior to booking airfare with no response after numerous emails for over a week. Tried calling today the number is "unavailable". Feeling like I just lost $500.00. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
