Trying to get info on doctors in Oregon that do fills for surgeries done in Mexico. Looking into Dr. Kuri doing my surgery in January 06.

question--who is your facilitator? the good thing about dr. Kuri is that they have a list of fill docs that they keep and give to us newbies. and as more are located in different areas by those of us who start searching on our own--they add to the list. email me off list and I will look to see if I still have the original list in my saved msgs. I know there are docs in Oregon--I was banded with a gal from there--and I always look for things there because I am a transplant from there--lol.

Not sure what to tell you on this one. There was a doc in Portland, but he lost his liability insurance to tend to us MX bandsters.

I previously went to Dr. Kelly Fitzpatrick in Portland (think she's here in Eugene now). She's a natraupathic doctor so she doesn't use flouro.

Not sure of any others.

I'm getting rebanded in January, but will need to go back to MX when I go for my fills because of my slippage and removal last summer. Slippage was from a horrible flu virus that had me violently throwing up for days and I had to make a flying trip to MX to have my wonderful doctor take care of me during his vacation!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
