Plastic surgery in Mexico nearly kills a Phoenix woman

A warning is coming down from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention after a dozen fungal meningitis deaths were tied to clinics in Mexico where Americans have been getting cosmetic procedures. The CDC says there are almost another dozen confirmed ongoing cases. The patients were in for different surgeries, but all received epidural anesthesia. A woman from Phoenix survived – but barely. Alondra Lomas is a 27-year-old mom of two. After her second C-section, she wanted what's known in the plastic surgery world as a "mommy makeover." As a medical assistant in Phoenix, she did some research and found a doctor in Mexico with results she liked. She flew out of Sky Harbor airport for a Brazilian butt lift and liposuction but got significantly more than she bargained for. Months later, Alondra was diagnosed with fungal meningitis. It's a rare infection in the brain and spinal cord that's extremely difficult to cure. "March 13 was the day I had my surgery. On March 31, I felt my first symptoms of a headache and spinal pain. When I would walk, it would hurt my spine. I tried to contact the doctor back in Mexico without getting an answer, so I contacted the coordinator. She then said that she was able to reach out to the doctor and that he said it was normal," Alondra said. Days of feeling normal were followed by days of feeling off.
