    Hi there - I was banded July 3rd in Cancun Mexico by dr. verboonen. The first week was hell, because they also had to repair a hiatal hernia I never knew I had, which caused more nausea and reflux. Now I am settling in to it. I've lost 28 pounds since I started my pre-op diet 10 days before the surgery.

    Now I am trying to figure out where to do my first fill (in August). Dr Perez in Fort lauderdale has reasonable prices, but they do not do fluroscopy. To get fluoroscopy, I have to go to Fills Center USA in St. Petersburg...

    Anyway, any info on fills doctors is appreciated. I am somewhat limited since many of them will not take Mexico patients.
