mom of 5 5 Posted February 28, 2013 Vogue, awesome on your weight loss! My surgery isn't till April 18...:/ praying for a speedy recovery. Does your insurance pay for tummy tucks? My fear is sagging skin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vogue 310 Posted March 1, 2013 Vogue, awesome on your weight loss! My surgery isn't till April 18...:/ praying for a speedy recovery. Does your insurance pay for tummy tucks? My fear is sagging skin. only with a 3 month history of skin problems post- loss of major weight.... Ive been to my PCP once already and been prescribed cream... yesterday I noticed irritation where my butt & thighs meet.... same type I was getting at my waistline ( bumps/rash/redness).... Even if the insurance only pays for a panni, Im going to put the money up for the rest to get TT unless by some great miracle this apron leaves by July/August Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
