I WAS!! Dr Cribbons is my Dr. He is GREAT!!! He is kinda shy so you need to start the talking with him. He is so sweet and very gentle!!

In fact I liked him so much that when my son had to have and emergency apendectomy I took him to the hospital where I knew Dr. Cribbons would be so he could do the surg.

Good luck today, let us know how it goes....

i had my consult with him today and I really liked him ALOT but the cots is 17,700 - that is SO much more than everyplace else!

Do you have insurance that will help pay for this? I know that the hospital's cost for mine was 21,000. So if you are self pay you need to consider that part also....

keep me in the loop on what you are going to do..good luck!!

That same exact thing happened to me. I don't know what it is. I got overfilled. Got it emptied. I have gotten more fills then I care to talk about and NONE of them provide me with any restriction. This has happened over a 5 month period or so. I don't know if my port is messed up or what. I am lost. Gained 20 pounds.
