?'s about financing



Recommended Posts

wait...who offer's 1.9% financing..i missed out on that one. also, capital one offers 0% financing if you pay it off in like 2 or 3 years, but i had to go for 5.

My payments are $345/month for 5 years. That was financing $15,000. So basically a car payment. My son's private school tuition is cheaper..lol.

i've only lost 2 lbs. since surgery, and that $345/month payment hurts.

that it isn't uncommon.

i'm getting more than used to that question.

my doctor hasn't really seemed concerned. he says the weight loss will happen when i find restriction. The 2 lbs that i lost were from my last fill. so..maybe i'm getting there. Also, i had lost 12 lbs, before moving to solids, then i missed one of my fills, so it all came back, then i gained 2 one week. so my overall loss is 2 lbs.

i try not to stress about it. i'm eating less. now i just need to exercise. i don't know what is up with my body.

before I found out ins was gonna cover me, I had financing thru Cosmetic Surgery, Dental Procedures, Vision Costs and more: Healthcare Financing I have horrible credit so my mom cosigned. It askes you on the app if you are applying for someone else & what the patients name is you are applying for. With my bad credit, my APR was 23%, $16000 financed was $565 a month for 5 yrs. Would have been tough, but worth it. Thankfully ins came thru!!

thanks, I'm pretty confident that I will be able to be financed. I just have restrictions on how much I will be able to pay out every month. Thank you for all your experiences! I'm thinking that approx. $175-$200 a month (at $7000, Mexico prices) per your experiences will be something that I can handle! yeah!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
