cashley 0 Posted April 29, 2006 Robyn, I guess I'm still confussed on the knick thing. Are we all at risk for the same type of knick? I don't think I've every been informed of ricks like that from the fill needle? Also, I didn't think you should sue your doctor but I though he could make it "easier" for you on the cost of the surgery that wasn't your fault either. I just paid for my surgery on self-pay but then my insurance also paid so I'm getting a refund. The insurance only paid $800 for surgery that it cost reguarly people 17,000. If an insurance company and negotiate discounts that deep surely you doctor can negotiate less then $13,000 for an expense you didn't elect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rockin' Robyn 15 Posted April 29, 2006 Thanks guys for the prayers....they seemed to have helped. I talked to the office today, and they have made lots of calls and waived their cost and got the amount down from over $5,000 to $1800!! I'm slotted for Friday, May 12th. It's my 3rd surgery, so maybe this time is the charm (so they say). I'll let you know how it goes, and thanks for all the prayers and encouraging words. Love you guys!

Rockin' Robyn 15 Posted May 12, 2006 Hi Guys! Had my surgery to put my port back in this am. Everything went really well. I actually was able to drink Soup this pm without being in excrutiating pain. I had forgotten what it was like to actually eat without pain, nausea, and vomiting. I'm pretty groggy from the pain meds right now, but wanted to let you all know it went well. Thanks for your prayers....now let's just pray that there is no port infection this time around. Love you guys! Robyn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhotoNut 7 Posted May 14, 2006 Heyas Robyn, I'm so glad to hear the surgery went without any problems. I'm believing that this time around there will be no infection.

Rockin' Robyn 15 Posted May 14, 2006 Thanks for all the well wishes guys! You all are so great.... Just going to take it a day at a time, taking extra special care of the incisions. They are looking a little red to me already, but hopefully that is just due to swelling from the surgery. I'll check back in and let you guys know how it is going.
