Rodriguez a wonderful doctor with great staff. no complication and its the best thing i have ever done for my self. i need to lose another 40 to 50 pound. good luck let me know if you need more info.</p>

Hi Friends I got banded on March 17, 2007 with a wonderful Dr. Rodriguez in Monterrey Mexico. he refered me to a Dr. on the east coast for fills, my consult was $300.00 and fills were 150.00 way too much. he said i have an 7cc band, but he would only give me 1 to 1.5 cc of fill. here it is two weeks later and i feel like i have no fill. how much fill are you suppose to get????? i thinks its all about the money with him, of course he wants me to return sooner for another fill...lololo i really want to find someone no so money hungry and add more fill. i have lost a total of 36 pounds...but do not feel that restrited. i do only low carb foods and i am very strick with my life change. no junk food..i want to lose 80 more pounds. but i loved the restriction your first few weeks after surgery..i want that back.........:kiss2: does anyone know a doctor that does fills in Ft. Myers??? even if i was banded in Mexico. any suggestions.........:clap2:
