So I had surgery on the 1st of November and while I was in the hospital they gave me heparin shots pre-op and post-op to prevent blood clots. When they administered one of them I got a bruise which I know is normal and can happen. But yesterday I noticed I had a fresh deep purple bruise where one of the shots was given that I didn't have before. Is this normal? Have any of you experienced this as well?

Just got sleeved a couple of hours ago and these gas pains are killing me! I think the gas pains have been the worst part of this whole day!!

Tomorrow I will have my surgery! I thought this day would never get here. But it has and I am so nervous that something might go wrong or something isn't right and my procedure will get canceled. Blegh >.<

ANTHEM BLUE CROSS/BLUE SHIELD PPO CALIFORNIA
becksss replied to Kay Raykiewicz's topic in Insurance & Financing
Hello! I also have blue cross. My insurance is covering the procedure but I do have a deductible and an OOP expense to meet. Mine is 7,300. The hospital is allowing me to put down a deposit and pay off that amount. If you haven't met your deductible or OOP this year then expect to pay the hospital a pretty penny haha Hope this helps! -
I've been seeing a lot of people who need to be on liquid diets from about 2-3 weeks prior to their surgery. My doc only requires a 2 day liquid diet. Is that a bad thing?

November buddies where are you?

Mine is November 1st (: -
Got my date today for my surgery, November 1st! The whole process was pretty quick considering I first went in for a consultation on Oct 4th. I am very excited but also very nervous. I've never had surgery before but I'm telling myself that everything will be fine. I really hope so! :x Ahh
