HELP ! ! ! Fill doctor needed in MI



Recommended Posts

I was banded in Mexico and was planning to get my fill locally at Barix Clinic in Ypsilanti by Dr. Kam. I called this morning to make an appointment for my first fill and was informed Dr. Kam is leaving Nov.1 and he is taking no new patients since he is booked solid. So I got on the phone and started making phone calls. Must have called at least 8 different places and no one will do a fill for me. Is there anyone out there who knows where I can get a fill without having to go back to Tijuanna????????????????

Hana,

I live in PA as well. What part of PA do you live? I live in York. Anyway, I am looking for a fill dr. for after I get banded in March. How much do Fill Center's USA cost? What was your experience with them?

I live in PA, about 30min south of Harrisburg. Yes I am going outside the US. I chose Dr. Rod in Acuna. Who was your Doc? What was your experience like?

By the way, someone gave me the name of a Doc in Frederick, MD. I don't know how far that is away from you and I haven't met her yet or anything but if you wanna check her out I'll give you her info. I think she was banded as well. Her name is Susan Brinkley. The phone # is 303-668-2800. I think her fills are $200. Again this is all second hand. I have to check it out myself to set up my fills for after surgery. I'm hoping she can do them because this would be the closest option for me.

Please write back and tell me how your experience went...I like get all the perspectives I can.

Oh and Hanna, if you give me your e-mail I can forward you the list of fill Docs that Dr. Rod's office sent me. Maybe one of them would work for you?

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
