I just called the doctor's office, and he won't do fill's for anyone banded in Mexico.

Just FYI

Help!

Does anyone know of a fill doctor in Texas, preferably Houston area, that will do fills for Mx. patients?

I need to know very quickly...I would drive anywhere at this point.

Thanks!!

I have two numbers and one of them is in Houston. I'm in the Dallas area and was given these numbers. I know they both do patients banded in Mexico and the price was $150. I'll give you both numbers and you can call them to see which is in Houston.

Wish Center 888-870-9474

Dr. Marvin 800-664-9177

If these don't work, I have several in the Dallas area that will do it.

Beware those who don't do bands but feast on the harvest of opportunity (banded patients in need.) If these people don't know the band well, they can do more harm than good... just my 2 cents..

I am also from the Houston area but am not quite ready for a fill yet (with in the next 3 weeks). Therefore, will probably need to go ahead and schedule with someone soon (banded in Mexico). Leatha, you message above scares me....how am I gonna know if the Dr. I schedule with will be a good one?..

Any thoughts?

Thanks!............Cyndi

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
