I dunno where 2 begin, Everytime he would see me he rushed me, and when i have questions or concerns he would act like I was wasting his time or like I was bothering him w/ my ignorance, but the worst of all is When I had 2 emergencies, I was having very painful spams in port area for 2 days I called him, left him 3 messages, he NEVER called me back, was out of town and his nurses told me to go 2 the ER. He never bother 2 call me back to see if I got better,:omg: The 2nd emergency :I had was food stuck in band for 2 days over weekend, I called his office 20 times, finally they answered and told me GUESS WHAT? Dr. is on vacation no one can help you until next week, go to the ER. I was in so MUCH pain for 3 days THROWING Up and not be able to sleep until I found a WONDERFUL DR. that helped me the same day I called to get unfilled and he charged me 50 $ less, great team of nurses, they answered all my ?

Banded 1/24/06 by Dr. de la Garza, Monterrey, Mexico

:help: Hello, I got my 1st fill thursday, I follow the 2 days liquids & 2 days soft foods, yet today (Sunday) I was feeling really HUNGRY around lunch and ate 1 quesadilla, waited and wasnt full yet so I ate another 1/2 quesadilla and a cup of mashed potatoes, after that I felt full but I m not sure If I ate more than I was supposed to or need more liquid on my band? I thought i WAS going to be filled with less amount of food. HELP What should I do? What heve some of u experienced? thoughts? Is it too early to get more liquid on my band ? Im self pay so I really dont want to wait 2 weeks to pay $200 more for what I should have gotten in the 1st place. Thanks a lot!:eek:

hi Guys, I agree is tough, there is a wonderful book that makes u think about why we chose to neglect our bodies, please read it, it will help u. Its called "you can heal your life" by Louis L. Hay. Give it a try it will help u resolve some emotional connection with how u treat yourself. It has made me think alot, lots of luck and NEVER give UP.:clap2:
