Anyone is welcome to go with us to Mexico for fills. Dr. Aceves, he is about 50 miles west of Yuma. We go as a group and have fun while we are in Mexico. He'll fill people he did not band.

Looking for a doc in the Yuma area willing to take other docs patients

and insurance.

I refuse to pay for a fill when my insurance company will do it for me.

Any information would be greatly appreciated.

How much is your copay? The reason I ask is if it is a hefty copay or if it would be cheaper than driving Dr. Aceves is 55 miles west of you and he's $80 for a fill with Fluoro.

No co-pay!

But I will only be there for about 5 months, this year.

I would like to meet up with you. You do live in Yuma?

I'm a new lapbander, going for my first fill in three days.

Nope, I'm in Phoenix but I know there are several banded folks in Yuma.

If you can't find a fill doc in reasonable driving distance Dr. A is a great choice. Probably the cheapest you'll find for cash pay if you have to go that route.

Dr Aceves also does his fills with fluoro. Don't know if that makes a difference to you.

Hey, Francine. I lived in Gig Harbor for 30 years, and now divide my time between Arizona and Washington. Glad to see another Pierce County area person on here.

Francine... Snowbird has a favorite restaurant in Mexicali too! They serve her favorite chicken! ;o)

      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!
