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.

I Had No Problem With Pills From The 1st Day I Came Home From The Hospital. All I Can Say Is Try It And If You Think The Pill Is To Big Then Cut It In Half

Thanks, I have never in my life had such a bad sinus cold before, it figures, i never really used to get headaches either but since surgery and the fact that you arent supposed to take pills of course i have been getting them, probably just because of my body adjusting to no caffeine and less food. I have some liquid gels I hope nothing get stuck..

It Depends On The Person And The Docs Instructions. There A Few People On Here That Take Pills With Prob. Its All Trial And Error Nothing Is Written In Stone Like My Doc Says. You Wont Know Unless You Try.

I had to wait 2 months because of the healing process. But I am doing fine with them. You should probably see if there is anything in your paperwork from your surgeon.

My doc said no pills for a month. Unfortunately, I am on a couple of time released meds, so they can't be cut in half or crushed, sao I was taking small pills about 10 days out. No problem at all, Now I can take the Centrum Chewable vitamins without chewing them and they are pretty big.
