I had my first fill about 2 weeks ago and have no restriction. My second fill isn't for 3 weeks. Does anyone know if Dr. K in Aurora, Colorado lets you schedule an earlier appointment for a fill or do I have to wait the month?

Hi there, Is Dr. K his full name? I have heard of Dr. Kirsenbom or something like that. I was banded by Dr. Brown in Denver. I too have one fill with no restriction and have only lost 1 lb so far. I called for an earlier appt for my second fill. The doctor is great, the nurses are great, the hospital was great but the receptionist (Cheryl) is the worst. She seems to be on a power trip and when I called she didn't even check to see if there were any earlier appt. she just said in a very snippy voice that there were no appointments. Dr. Brown only likes to do fills once a month but I think his nurses will be a little more agressive if you ask them to. I will be anxious to hear if you can get a fill earlier from Dr. K. I know it is really important to your success to get fills in a timely fashion so as not to get discouraged. Please keep us posted. My 2nd fill is next week Aug 20th.

Yes Dr. K is Kirshenbaum, I called the office and spoke to Mary, she scheduled me an appointment for this Thursday afternoon. Although Dr. K won't be in he has additional staff that are capable of doing the fill. The staff at his office are very helpful.

Thanks for inputs.

Mim

      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'. ???

        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.

      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!
