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.

Take a stool softener that your surgeon approves, it really helps. I use Dulcolax.

no help with the iron, but I drink a herbal laxative tea every other day. It helps with getting liquids in and it works.

Iron is very hard on the tummy yes. Miralax is a God Send needless to say. Yes ask your Dr and do what he tells ya. I hope it works out to your advantage.

Sorry to hear you're having BM trouble. Your doc should be able to help you with that. Hang in there.
