:thumbup:THANKS MMM for the phone call last night I so appreciate it . I did forget to ask you do you know how much time i will need off work, as i work for my self ( I'm a dog groomer ) i can book off as much as i need but i also don't want to lose any of my customers as business is quite a present with the credit crunch .cant wait to get it done now off to pay my deposit today .I'm taking my milk thistle and also homeopathic Anica as that is great for you when you have anesthetic as it helps you get over it better

I can only say what I felt comfortable with post op. I bathed my 3 mini dacschunds 4 days post op, but they are only small and lightweight, I would have needed at least 1 week for a spanial sized dog (12kg) and closed to 2 weeks for the labrador sized, only because of lifting tho. For small dogs I would book them in from 1 week post op and larger about 2 weeks post op. Hope this helps mmm

Hi Mandy

I looked into insurance and finally gave up. There's nothing out there to cover what we would need. Private companies offer their own insurance if you have op done with them and companies like BUPA don't cover it. Ordinary travel insurance purely for your travel to cover cancelations etc. but even that wouldn't cover you for travelling back and being ill after an operation abroad!

Sorry, just nothing out there that I have been able to find.

:smile:good luck mandy..if ive caught you in time before you go?!..youll do great like we all did. look forward to your post op posts!. i know its abit late for you but my sister (bigsister) found at least one or two insurance companies willing to insure for cosmetic surgery abroad. i think one was the Linda briggs site, linda briggs do cosmetic surgery but there insurers also insure others going elswhere.(if bigsister reads this she might just post?!) if not ill ask her and post details, shes busy with work. but we ended up going without as most do. flight was less than an hour, as soon as your up, your landing,it flies (!)

flirty, im sure youll be ok in day or two. sounds like you had bug or ate something dodgy. the throwing up will have really swelled your stomach up around your band and youll be sore and raw..lets hope that the xray will show that everythings allright..let us know when you come back, im sure it will be fine.

freckles..give us an update on your family!!mum, daughters,baby etc. hope your doing well and thanks for tip on having liquids for couple of days..i will try that when i need to when it loosens off after a fill. thanks for your funny email jokes too!

on the fizzy drink debate..I can have quite a bit of fizzy drink, but dont drink much of it anyway, i prefer juice, or tea. i know others cant do it tho, were all different suppose. i need it if i get anything stuck though, it helps it go down cos it makes me burp which helps, although i cant let rip with em like i could before!. i went on a trip to bakewell pudding shop last night..we went into the bakery and made one each, then it was judged after..mine didnt win, it was overfilled!..but delicious!..naughty, but it was only individual size..god,they are expensive though! .there was a 3 course meal in with price and i brought most of it home in a doggy bag, only had half the salmon, but ate the salad. and just the top off the desert. good job it wasnt next week as im having a fill, albeit a tiny tiny one! x

we just travelled on normal annual travel insurance we had anyway. but if owt goes wrong, like missing luggage etc, and they found out you went abroad for surgery, your complete insurance will be void. i dont think theyd find out though. like i say the flight is very short and your within miles of a hospital either end. we had no problem and i dont know anyone else who did either. x

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
