    Tricare bandsters? Help!!

    I have Tricare Prime and I didn't have to pay anything out of pocket (surgery was done off post). I also didn't have to have a psych eval. My approval came very quickly, 6 days from a visit to my primary to approval, and I had surgery less than 2 months after my talk with my primary. I have done really well and have been at goal for about 3 months now (had surgery 4/18/08 and lost 160). I just had a panniculectomy a month ago and that was covered 100% as well, but I also had to have my port repositioned so it was done at the same time. I saw that someone that replied was in Lakewood, WA, I'm in Puyallup. We should get together sometime. Feel free to send me an email off of LBT at ALionberge@aol.com

    Thanks, I really worked hard. That's exactly what I said that when I put them on, as did my husband.

    Those were the actual pants I wore just before surgery 18 months ago, size 32s. I fit into one leg now.

    Without the bandages at my first post-op appt.

    It is painful, but worth it. I was going to wait awhile before I got the tuck done, but when i went to see my doctor about repositioning my port, he suggested that we do it at the same time. Who am I am to argue? LOL! I just had it done last Friday, so I am really supposed to be taking it easy and not lifting for quite awhile. I'm listening, but it's hard. I feel like I'm being lazy, but I figure it's either that or risk infection, blowing the incision, etc.

    I am doing ok. Just tired a lot and trying to do too much sometimes. It's really boring just laying in bed doing nothing. Fortunately my husband took some time off and is helping me greatly.

    Sorry not getting back to you about coffee yet. Things have just been crazy. I just had my tummy tuck yesterday and before that all the tests that go with being in the hospital.
