My nutrition seems off-balanced
Elode replied to ready2livenow's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
@@ready2livenow I know it stinks that you don't feel like anything is good but you have to eat! At least drink your protein drinks or you will get sick. It sounds like your already having symptoms. Your going to have to do it! -

Out of pocket expense?
Elode replied to simplyrita8's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Mine was about 600 for the entire thing. My actual bill before insurance paid was 39,000+ so I know it may seem like a lot to you but it's nothing compared to out of pocket and some people Pay that. Be thankful! Good luck on your journey! -

@@amyecpa They use barium sulfate. It's two chemicals mixed together,Barium sulfate is in a group of drugs called contrast agents. Barium sulfate works by coating the inside of your esophagus, stomach, or intestines which allows them to be seen more clearly on a CT scan or other radiologic (x-ray) examination. Barium sulfate is used to help diagnose certain disorders of the esophagus, stomach, or intestines.
