In reference to Medicaid you don't have to be dirt poor. Your family could have a need and if you fit within the guidelines you qualify for some assistance. Now im this case if you don't have enough coverage through your employer you can qualify for something called third party insurance. Look into it this is NOT Illegal you can show that you qualify. There are things set in place for you to use you just have to use the resources that you have. Order My Steps Dear Lord...

How long after surgery should the Water weight go away.... I'm 5 days out post op and I'm still bloated, I'm following my diet but no weight loss yet.. is this normal Order My Steps Dear Lord...

I guess I was lucky because I had my lapband out in January and thought that was it. I went in on September the 14th for a consulting and the surgeon said set up a surgery date your scar tissue should be healed by now. They had me to go to the nutritionist once that Friday and my insurance was put through the next week and the 26 of September 9 months to the day I was sleeved from my band being removed I was blessed ....

I had my sleeve placed this past Wednesday I came home Thursday. I started cramping and now I have something like a light cycle but I just had one on September 9th I did have intercourse on the 21st but thought nothing of it the test was negative the day of surgery. Did anyone else go through this. So could it just be the stress of the procedure? Order My Steps Dear Lord...

Good to know I was not alone. Order My Steps Dear Lord...

Thank you both, I think its just a reaction to the surgery. Because like I said the test was negative the day of and I had not had intercourse since the 21 of September. I should be ok, I so don't want that right now !! Order My Steps Dear Lord...

I had my sleeve placed this past Wednesday I came home Thursday. I started cramping and now I have something like a light cycle but I just had one on September 9th. Did anyone else go through this, I hope its not TMI But they took a pregnancy test before surgery and it said negative. So could it just be the stress of the procedure? Order My Steps Dear Lord...

Hello, my name is Tonika and I had my sleeve done September 26 2012. I originally had the lap band In 2003 and I was 374 pounds. I got down to 176 pounds nevertheless I started having problems with the band and I creeped back up to 288 pounds. I went In for a revision on my birthday January 26 2012, my liver and my stomach were merged together. The surgeon said he's good but not that good so once he freed the band and liver and stomach he aborted the revision. I woke up to disbelief he said I had too much scar tissue and would never be able to have any weight loss surgery again. I was depressed for 8 months till one day I said God please heal my insides I'm not meant to be heavy. I went online researched everyone told me no till West Lake Hospital came up I called and the rest is history. I went in on a Monday in August and three weeks later I had my surgery... Scar tissue completely healed. What a mighty God we serve, I was nervous the nigh before so I prayed and God whispered trust me your stomach is ok and I just believed and was ok after that.. FYI MY NURSES NAME WAS JESUS AND I HAVE A ROSARY BEAD TATTOO AND SHE PRAYED ON IT... [ATTACH]5271[/ATTACH] Order My Steps Dear Lord...
