Default I Had The Scope Done Today

THANK YOU GUYS ONCE AGAIN FOR ALL YOU SUPPORT AND HEARING ME VENT ALOT LATELY!!!!!

SO I WENT THIS MORNING FOR THE SCOPE AND I DID HAVE A STRICTURE. THE DOC WAS ABLE TO USE THE BALLOON TO OPEN IT WITHOUT HURTING THAT AREA (since that is the area i had the leak and absses) THEY TOLD ME IT IS COMMON TO GET STRICTURES WITH THIS SURGERY AND EVEN MORE COMMON BECAUSE OF THE COMPLICATIONS I HAD IN THAT AREA HEALED ITSELF AND DEVELOPED SCAR TISSUE. HE DID SUGGEST WE DO THIS AGAIN IN 2 WEEKS.

SO NOW IM PRAYING ONCE AGAIN THAT IT WILL BE SMOOTH SAILING FROM HERE ON!

MY SURGEON IS REALLY GOOD AND DEPENDABLE EVERY TEST I HAVE EVER GONE FOR HE HAS SHOWN UP FOR TO CHECK THINGS OUT FOR HIMSELF. I HAD 2 CATSCANS MY SURGEON SHOWED UP TO WATCH, ALSO I HAD THE ABSESS DRAINED WHILE I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL AND HE SHOWED UP TO WATCH THAT AS WELL AND THEN TODAY I HAD THE SCOPE AND MY SURGEON SHOWED UP ONCE AGAIN CAUSE HE WANTED TO WATCH AND CHECK THINGS OUT FOR HIMSELF. I WAS GLAD HE WAS THERE IT SHOWED ME HE CARES.

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.

Liquids And I Can Attempt Puree Tomorrow. Boy If I Ever Leave The Puree & Lquid Stage It Will Be A Miracle. Lol

I Even Noticed When I Burp It Feels Normal Now. Because Before If I Used To Have To Burp It Used To Feel The Same Feeling As I Had To Throw Up So I Used To Get The 2 Confused
