Yay! Very exciting

summerset got a reaction from GreenTealael in July 6th is the date. Finally getting my lower body lift. 😷
Of course I'm excited! I'm so happy insurance approved for abdomen, mons and inner thighs! I'm half-self pay for the lower body lift so to say (IMO that's ok - if you want premium and not standard you should pay for the difference in price yourself). However, sick leave and anesthesia and hospital stay is covered by insurance and that's very important.
Breast and upper arms: there is still appeal going on but it doesn't really stress me out right now because it will be minimum 6-9 months before it would come to the third surgery anyway. Most important thing is that insurance will pay for the stuff that's bothering me the most. My inner thighs don't exactly chafe but the touch of the loose skin when walking when not wearing tight pants that provide a bit of compression is a really unpleasant feeling. It's very... weird. Hooray for running skirts when it gets hot again in summer!

Scared but maybe a little excited too? I think my mommy makeover was almost 6hrs. I’m always amazed by the endurance of surgeons and their teams.

It's a 6 h surgery and tbh - I'm pretty scared.

summerset got a reaction from GreenTealael in Why suffer?
Useful video. Some patients seem to feel the need for "repentance for past sins" by suffering.

Should be a sticky. Same with Dr. Weiner's video on changing portion sizes after surgery. It's unbearable how so many teams don't seem to educate their patients that growing portion sizes are normal?!

summerset got a reaction from GreenTealael in Got mail from my lawyer recently. Insurance approved tummy tuck and thighs. My appoin
Hopefully, yes.
However, even if not - the procedures that matter most to me (abdomen, mons and thighs) are covered. I'm partly self-pay because of wanting a lower body lift but since the surgery is partly covered I can get a normal sick leave for work (instead of using vacation days) which is a very important thing.
Appeal regarding breasts and arms will take time again. However, with two surgeries ahead, including the big lower body lift - it will take about a year before this becomes relevant again anyway, I guess. 😊
Hopefully you're fine with the pandemic and all?

summerset reacted to NuOutlook in Got just diagnosed with iron deficiency. So it's high dose supplements for a few week
Don't worry after my gastric bypass I too was diagnosed with iron deficiency and Vitamin D deficiency as well. My doctor monitors my blood levels and added iron supplements and vitamin D supplement to my vitamin regime. Good Luck

Yes, PH department was just like "Well, no quarantine for you, go back to work!" - yeah, the hell I won't with an infection of the respiratory tract. I'm on sick leave until the end of the week per my GP (waiting for the paper to arrive with mail as they don't want you to come in in person if possible).
Hospital is a bit more cautious than PHD and didn't press me to come back tomorrow. They suspect recent unnoticed infection and wanted me to come in today for drawing blood for antibody testing. So now I'm stalking my labs for the results from home via VPN-client.
