Reconstructive Surgery Bummer



Recommended Posts

Jus did tt and breast lift- discount of $2,000 if done together- surgeon 8,050 and anatheiologist (sp) 1300. so 9350 and that covers everything from consult (fee taken off surgery price) and all after care, gurdles. wraps, 2 night stay at his surgical center operating apartment ( I live 130 miles from office)

Yes, its a lot of money and I am fortunate husband gave me great Christmas gift of cash to pay for surgery. I would have done the financing of surgeries that is available, I will look for that info if anyone wants it is only for medical surgeries financing.

I suggest to cover all basics, some dr.s charge for gurdles and wraps extra and after care too. I believe it is expected that you get prices and compare that is why they give 6 month quotes!

good luck!

It really looks like the first Dr I went to is way to expensive. Congrats on you success and on your TT and breast Aug. Im sure you are feeling great.

Well I went to the Dr this morning. I really liked him a lot. He took a lot of time to talk to me and answer all my questions. It was great until we got to the price. After all is said and done it will cost about $8,000. OH MY GOSH! They are having to remove a lot of excess skin and give me a lift so that is why it is more. I am going to work my but off to come up with the money. I hope to have it done in March on Spring Break. That way my son is out of school and it will be easier. He also said I should wait until my 3 year old is bigger to have mystomach done because the recovery is hard and I will have to take it easy for a long time. So I am putting off thinking about that for now.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
