Freaking Out About Lovenox -- Anyone Else Have To Do This? Self-Injections?



Recommended Posts

Mine was 15 copay. I have the high risk pool insurance in ohio they dont cover the surgery' date=' but a lot of the tests and stuff they do.

Every state has a high risk pool insurance thorough the new healthcare plan. Basically it is a guaranteed coverage for people with pre existing conditions, or who can't get insured now.

Before getting it we had to go to er and couldn't pay our bill need to use tax payer dollars.

Now.we can visit our pcp, urgent care, or specialists, and we only pay 160 per month per person. My wife has already hit her max out of pocket, she has a lot more medical issues.[/quote']

I was going to get that after I was denied last year for preexisting BUT after my brother passed and haven't had steady income I can't pay it lol

Hopefully by 2014 I'll have insurance through an employer but If for some awful reason I don't then at least I'll be able to get it from somewhere.

I believe in 2014 all carriers will not be allowed to turn people down.

I think having everyone covered and taking responsibility for health like they do car insurance is a good idea because people without coverage usually cost 400% or more for non life threatening things and they can't pay it, so it adds to increasing costs for everyone.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
