Hello,
I am Catherine from US. My life is running smoothly, as I had gone to India for a Gastric Bypass Surgery, a couple of months before. It’s a miracle! I was 300 pounds, surviving at diet pills, steroids. I had tried all weight loss treatments, gone to several doctors, but I was the same just as I was. I hesitate to see myself in mirror and the hardest, I never felt womanly. I was becoming just like a big drum. I had tried all the things that people suggested me. But the weight would come back, often more than I had lost. I was so depressed. My dear ones said to do some thing about my obese figure.
After some days, I thought that why should I not go to a cosmetic surgeon? May be he can suggest something! As now a days cosmetic surgey is becoming very popular. I went and got an appointment with him. I discussed all my problems with him, about my lack of confidence, self-esteem due to obesity. After acquainted with my situation, he suggested me to take a Gastric Bypass Surgery. This was the only permanent solution of my problem. The cost he told seemed to be high and unaffordable to me. (The cost was 9000 $ USD) I thought that I won’t be able to take this surgery. I was in a search of low cost Gastric Bypass surgery(available at a very less price).But my surgeon told me that there are other alternatives also.
He suggested me to get Gastric Bypass surgery in India by recommending a famous medical tourism company known as Forerunnershealthcare that provides best medical healthcare facilities at an exclusively low cost. I send an e-mail to that medical tourism company. And to my surprise, the very next morning, I received a response e-mail from them. Then I made a call on their number that was given in their details and expressed my interest to get the Gastric Bypass Surgery in India at an affordable cost. They offered me a medical tour at a low price quote which had been arranged by them. They explained me the whole details of this surgery like who will be the surgeon, where will be I treated.They assured me the best medical treatment for gastric bypass in India. After this, I gave my consent to their offer of gastric bypass in India. They arranged visa, flight, and hotel for me.
When I came to India their representatives received me with a warm and hearty welcome. They dropped me at their booked hotel. Next day I went to meet the surgeon who was treating me and he discussed all the procedure with me. He prepared me mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically. Surgeons of india have achieved great success in the recent years to fulfil the health recovery expectations of patients coming to them. After having a talk with him, I was quite confident about the surgery. Hospitals of India are providing good quality gastric bypass surgery to international patients .I have also heard that hospitals of Mumbai,Delhi, Goa,Chennai,Hyderabad,Pune,Mumbai,Kerela and Banglore are serving good medical facilities in India. Gastric bypass in India is available at an affordable price. On 11 June 2005, I had my surgery, I was a little bit nervous also, but the wish to have a beautiful figure, I ever dreamed off, made me strong again, and I made it within myself that everything will be fine. The gastric bypass in India was successful and all went well. Thank God! I was lucky that I had no side effects by this gastric bypass surgery. Some minor problems occurred such as indigestion etc but after few days everything was fine with me. The doctors had advised me to drink plenty of water. There is a strict schedule that should be followed by every patient, so I did.
You won’t believe it, after this gastric bypass surgery, I had lost 150 pounds in a couple of months! I thanked to God and of course to Forerunnershealthcare medical tourism company. Medical tourism of India are dedicated to making your medical travel vacation for Gastric bypass surgery in India as pleasant, comfortable, safe, and affordable as possible. After the gastric bypass surgery, I also visited some worth seeing places of India under the holiday tour package offered by the medical tourism company. The representatives of the medical tourism company also arranged my return journey to US. I will always remain grateful to them. And now I am very happy with my figure and above all, feeling womanly. Now I am dealing with a new person in the mirror. Now I participate in all social activities with any hesitation. I have discovered a “NEW ME”.
If you are willing to take gastric bypass surgery then you should a consultation with your surgeon first, whether it is right for you or not because you should be well prepared for it. Every surgery have some risks but after reading about me, I think that all of you have got a perfect idea about an abroad surgery. But for me, Gastric Bypass in India was a boon.

[...] Gastric bypass is usually performed only after many other methods of weight loss have been tried and failed. However, the surgery is not an end in itself. It is important to work closely with a physician and registered dietitian (R.D.) to start a program of new eating habits to ensure that weight loss is safe and successful. A regular, simple exercise program and psychological support are often recommended to create a better self-image and a whole new attitude to food.

[...] Gastric bypass in India is becoming very popular among international patients just because of cost consideration. For the 48 hours before your gastric bypass surgery, you will be on a liquid diet. This includes water, clear juice, tea, coffee, popsicles, gelatin and broth. This is the same diet that you will follow immediately after surgery. Any heart and blood pressure medications should be taken as usual until the night before your surgery. Other medications require specific recommendations from your doctor.

[...] Visit this page for my experience of gastric bypass in India. Certain basic tests are done prior to surgery: a Complete Blood Count (CBC), Urinalysis, and a Chemistry Panel, which gives a readout of about 20 blood chemistry values. Often a Glucose Tolerance Test is done to evaluate for diabetes, which is very common in overweight persons. All patients but the very young get a chest X-ray and an electrocardiogram. Women may have a vaginal ultrasound to look for abnormalities of the ovaries or uterus. Many surgeons ask for a gallbladder ultrasound to look for gallstones. Other tests, such as pulmonary function testing, echocardiogram, sleep studies, GI evaluation, cardiology evaluation, or psychiatric evaluation, may be requested when indicated. [...]

One of the two sections is a new, smaller pouch that will act as the new stomach. The new stomach has a capacity of roughly two ounces, as opposed to its former size of about two quarts. This drastic reduction limits your stomach’s ability to hold food, making you feel full after eating only a small amount, requiring you to eat substantially less. This is the basis of the results you will see during the aftercare and beyond. The weight loss surgery takes approximately two hours and is performed under general anesthesia. [...]
