Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

You are still very early out and doing a LOT of healing. I actually had a stinging pain in the middle of my abdomen for QUITE a while...I worried about it, but it finally subsided....hopefully, there is nothing wrong and your body is still recovering...

Keep us posted and I hope you get some relief from the pain!

Aww ((((((HUGS))))) I'm glad that your surgeon's office listens to you and is ready to take care of you. Hope everything turns out fine. In the mean while, let's see what your DH will say in another 3 months or so.

I had similar pains, they ran tests and nothing showed up.... turned out to be really bad gas pains. They gave put me on an OTC med for it and that took care of it. I think because I was sore from the surgery, the gas pains were more intense. It was some of the worse pain I have ever had.

Hopefully your solution will be as simple as mine. Will pray for you.

Oh I hope its nothing. I know I had some serouse pain ended up at the surgeons in tears, he ran tests and did a CTScan and it turned out to be gas, never in my life did I think gas pains could hurt so damn bad. Try chewing some gas X and see if that helps any. I know if I had it to do over again I would call my surgeon in a heartbeat, since you never know what it could be so I think you did the right think calling. Its alway safer to er on the side of caution

I am with you Becka, didn't know gas pains could hurt so bad. I laugh about it now, but it wasn't funny at the time.
