hey Coloradans!

I'm in Boulder and would love some "in person" meetings (lunch, a hike, shopping, whatevah!) with other band-folk. I can drive to other areas (Fort Collins, Greeley, Denver) to help make this wish come true. Post here or email me at BandedMay03@aol.com.

Enthusiastically yours,

Annette

Hi there! I was just wondering if you know of any fill doctors in or around Denver. I'm desperate to find one there because I live in North Dakota, and that's the closest that I'd probably find one. If you know any, will you let me know? Thanks bunches!

hi Amber Rose,

That's a good question and I don't know a perfect answer for you. I once asked my doctor's office (Dr. Johnell in Greeley) if he did fills for patients of other surgeons. I was told yes, they do and they charge only $100. I thought that was fantastic and I posted that to the Colorado Bandsters list. Then someone called his office and said he had changed his policy because of liability :D Since then, I've heard people say that Dr. Snyder in Thornton/Westminster will soon start doing fills and that Dr. Brown in Canon City does fills.

Post your question to the Colorado Bandsters and see if anyone else has updated info!

Go to Yahoo.com, click on "groups" then search for the ColoradoBandsters group and subscribe.

Good luck!

Hi , Annette,

My name is Teresa. I am from Gering, NE about 2 1/2 hours from Greeley. I would like to have a " In Person" meeting with you. I will be in Greeley either on the 6th or 13th of Sept. Drop me an Email and we can get to know each other. My addy is msbrownielocks@yahoo.com

Amberose,

As you seen from above I am from NE and a lot closer to you than COLO. Here is some info on my doctor. I don't know how much he charges for a fill for people from out of town but I heard it was dirt cheap! Our fills are free. We pay just for the office visit. ($52)

Thank you Teresa! I'm getting desperate here to find a fill doctor. I was hoping that I could find one in or around Denver because I have a cousin who lives there, and I wanted to use the trip to visit her and to get a fill....ya know, kill two birds with one stone. But if I can't find one in Denver, I'll definately give doctor Holloway a call. Thanks again!

Annette in Boulder, thank you for responding, and yes, I did join ColoradoBandsters, so hopefully somebody will know a doctor I can get a fill from. It sucks when doctors decide to not give fills to patients who didn't get the surgery by them. What about us who went to Mexico to get it done!?! I really don't want to fly back to Mexico every time I need a fill. But hopefuly I can find a doctor who will take me. Thanks again!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
