    Btw besides the obvious swelling gas associated pain my portal feels like it protrudes more than the other insisions plus also seems to give me the most overall pain. Veterans is this normal??

But weve came this far theres no going back now so keep up the good work support is always good in hArd situations like these!

    Medicaid Coverage

    It differs from state to state. I lived in N. Carolina where medicaid did not pay. Moved here to texas and this month will be my last mnth of supervised diet. They require that before approval. You sound like a canidate tho. Definately worth checkin out. What state do u live in?
