Around my port area I feel like its Brused and I think its cause if I wear pants that rub near it or around it.. or i lean over my deak etc etc or even do to many sit up it tends to hurt more.. right now its not .. but it has a few times Texasbrat

Well I was band from him as well and he really is no help..at all. he is at 1st but after you have it done.. he is NO help at all.. I had alot of problems with my port where the cut wasnt closeing it to a long time to heal I keep calling and calling but NO help only one that would help where the girls in front but they couldnt really help me with this since it was still a open cut. well it findly healed but the scar is ugly.. its bigger on one side then the other so i wasnt happy with that I too go to the Physicians surgery center for my fill and they are very nice , and exlpain anything that needs to be. I will never regreat having him do it. just should have look to see how the after care was going to be cause in my eyes.. after its done you go for ONE VIST to see him and he just checks tummy after that your on your own... So make sure you pick a doctor that will make sure u have good after care.. cause this is a life thing so if something ever go's wrong u want to make sure you have someone who is alway's going to be lookin after you..

I have a small group plan too BC. BS and i tried for 2 years to get it covered and they would'nt do it even tho i got them all the info that they told me that they would need they still did not cover it. So i went and got all this info for them for them to still tell me NO NO NO .. well after 2 years of trying. I gave up and went the self pay route. And i am so happy i did. Yall keep up the fight.

I have been doing so well with this whole thing ,did good during Thanksgiving and Christmas.. But Now it's New Years and every year I have went to a Bar or Party.. and I do drink.. So guess my question is . Is there anyone else out there that is going out this New Years to Party and if so what will you be drinkin.. since I can't have beer.. what are some other good choice out there that I can drink?

I only had to do a one day preop Liquid diet and that was hard lol.. but get use to it causes after u get the band you will be on a liquid diet for about a week after. good luck..

Started 281 Now Down To 226.. Weeeeeeeee

Well i have BC/BS and they would not cover it, tryed for 2 years to get it done and everything i would get for them still wasn't enough info.. the doctor who did mine was Speigal and he is in houston Tx.. and i to was selfpaid. and it cost me $15000 so your lookin about $1,500 on up depending what they charge the insurance company for your copay..

I went on a plaine in Oct and it was a bit tight but was ok.. and i was at 241 at that time i am flying out today and i am at 230 now so i am sure it will be ok... I think its up to the person if they want to get a 2nd seat or not!!!!

Ya i am also on the depo shot thats why i was like why is this happen but now reading what some of yall said , it makes me feel a little better. guess i will just have to let it flow.. haha.. til it stop and i do hope it stops soon .. thanks again for all your answers TexasBrat Banded 9/1/06 1st fill 9/29/06 3 CC 2nd Fill 11/07/06 5CC 281 starting/231 Now/150 want to be ...<!-- / message --><!-- sig -->
