ok heres the situation. this is NASTY too so if you cant stomach it look away LOL. there is something going on in my belly button. its not like oozy or anything. it looks like a rash. the skin in there is welted and raised/ swollen. i guess its a bunch of scuzz from sweat and what not. smells like something crawled in there and died  i called the dr's office over the weekend and they told me to swab it with alcohol a couple of times a day to dry it out until i get in on wednesday. nasty i know....but im guessibg its because i have had a piece of skin covering my belly button (like flapping over) since i lost the bulk of my weight and it cant really air out so to speak....incidentally he told me NO POWDER. if it is yeast or some kind of fungus it will feed on it LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!! sorry i just cant get over how when i was fat i NEVER had anything like this and now that i am losing it's full on.... great  yes i know im documenting but to be honest TT is the furthest thing from my mind. and anyway, but the time i decide to have it, IF i decide, i probably wont be working where i am now ( THE BEST MEDICAL BENEFITS IN THE WORLD) so i doubt it will be covered.....

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.  |

Weight Loss Method Roux en Y Gastric Bypass | Good Idea to keep it documented. I will keep that in the back of my mind too.. I get those rashes as well.. hummm... If all that other stuff doesn't work try the same cream they use for athleats feet it may be a yeast infection and you can use the cheap stuff from walmart it works just as good. |

take pictures of the rash and document it! the more you document the rashes and stuff the better chance with insurances assistance in removing it from what I've heard over the years.
