Hi,

Anyone know of the closest fill Dr. to Amarillo, TX? I contacted Dr. Crum here in town but he will not do fills on anyone that did not have the surgery done by him. I had my band placed by Dr. Rodriguez in Mexico. Any ideas? Thanks for your help.

I know that a number of people in the Panhandle who had MX surgery go to Dallas to Dr. Maese for fills. He is Hispanic and his father and uncle are both pioneers in the lapband field in Mexico (Monerrey I beleive) and he is very experienced and quite skilled at fills. He's in Highland Park.....Preston Cardiology Wellness Center...214-234-0330. He did all my pre-op work and all my fills - he uses flouro every time and does a good job.

Thanks Gayle. I made an appointment with Dr. Maese today. I will have to fly there but I feel much safer having him do the fill with Fluoro than the Dr. I had planned to see that does not.........AND charges the same price.

Hope it all works out well for you. I see people from lots of other cities and even other states in his office. Best wishes......

Hi there, I just moved to the Amarillo area, and contacted Dr. Crum's office. I was able to get an appointment for a fill. But it was cancelled because he is starting his own private practice, so I have to wait until January. You might want to check back with him.

      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.
