  3. Hi there, just checking to see if you had your revision with medicare.? My mom is having a lot of issues with her band and i don't know if she should look into another doctor, cause her current wls doc says medicate will only cover one wls surgery per lifetime. I'm worried about her.

  5. I was denied for my revision with another insurance. My doctor scheduled a 'peer to peer' with the insurance and it got approved after they spoke in phone with doctor.
  6. My band caused acid reflux which turned into barretts esophagus. I was told Rny was the way i had to go cause the sleeve actually could cause acid reflux, while the bypass can cure reflux. Its because of the way the sleeve is shaped that causes it. I love my bypass and i am 15 pounds from goal weight.
  7. Carbonated drinks can expand your stomach.
  8. Is palmers to get rid of scar or to cover up?
  9. Are they gonna do lypo as a revision to your knee from the thigh lift?
  10. Dr Clayton Moliver is awesome! He is in clear lake and very easy access to the freeway. He has great prices. I already had tunny tuck, but just had thigh lift and arm lift with him. His staff is amazing as well.
  11. Thank you so much!!
  12. I was like you totally against the Rny and set in the sleeve. My doctor discovered i had barretts and would not do the sleeve and suggested the Rny. He said its the shape of the stomach that is the problem with the sleeve. I was told the majority of people who have rny no longer have acid reflux. I totally trusted my doctor and went with the Rny. So pleased i did! Best decision ever and i have no acid reflux. I an one year out. Ps i also had hernia repaired in surgery and my recovery was nothing.
  13. I totally get what you are saying. I originally lost right after plastics, but i had some set backs with my thigh surgery and I'm laid up here since march 12th. This past week i am up 9 pounds. I am scared. :/ Btw, I had my thigh lift surgery with Clayton Moliver and he did a fabulous job! Check him out.
  14. Perfect! Thank you!
  15. Thank you for the suggestion!!
  16. Hi there, i am looking for scar makeup with SPF AND waterproof for my scars on my arms. I was told Mac waterproof, but wanted to see if anyone had any other suggestions. I am will be wearing my first sleeveless dress and its to my daughters wedding this summer. Help!!
  17. Dr. Clayton Moliver. He did a great job and his prices were more reasonable. The staff is also great. He is very reputable and I spoke to everyone in the waiting room each time. It was good to hear their opinions and who referred them, which was usually other doctors.
  18. Thank you! I already had the surgery
  19. @michiganchick @@cockapoomom @@shavonna34 @@Julie norton Everything looks great! I am swollen and have edema in my knees. I start message therapy tomorrow to get the swelling out. As far as pain, this surgery is nothing compared to he tummy tuck pain. You would think it would be worse cause I have a cut from the groin to the knee and cut from right below arm pit to to almost the elbow. I would definitely work on abs and squats before having any if these surgeries. You will need those muscles to get out of bed and sit on toilet. I am really glad I did. I am 9 days out and so far I have shopped on 3 different days for about 2 hours at a time. I went to a wedding last night and was in a car for 2 and half hours total to get there and back. I did way more than I should have but so far I haven't paid for it today. I do have a pain that shoots in one if my arms out of the blue but mostly when I take clothes on or off. I only take meds when I am going somewhere and that's only 1 hydro codeine instead of 2. Antestisiaologist said the tummy tuck is the hardest to go through. To me that's the first thing a weightloss patient should have done. It makes the biggest difference. One last thing, I was complimented by so many and they didn't know I had anything done. I told them I pulled my groin, lol!
  20. @@MichiganChic It's going good. Had my stitches taken out today. Doc likes the way all looks I am in compression outfit and calves wrapped. I have only a few pains here and there, basically one of my arms. Just a spring if pain towards my wrist, even though I had no surgery on my lower arm. I guess it's be nerves in there. So far I am thankful I did it and can't wait for swelling to go down. I will start therapy message next week to get rid if swelling edema thank you for being so sweet!
  21. Thank you so much for he information. I am gonna look into it.
