Hello all, I haven't checked in for a while. I have been recovering from a total knee replacement which I had Dec20th. My least favorite operation at present. LOTS of pain for a good three weeks, still need pain medication even now to get through physical therapy, but getting better now each day. I must be a glutton for punishment. I have had consults with surgeon for hernia repair and plastic surgeon for abdominoplasty and breast lift. PS is submitting for panni removal, hernia should be covered , so they estimate total costs will be about 7500.00. Still alot of money, but ....... getting it all done together will reduce the total costs. Would like brachioplasty and possible thigh's done in the future, time will tell for those items, depends on the money and how I recover from this next surgery. My weight has been pretty stable for months now, around 151-153. Would like to lose 10 or 15 more but the scale hasn't moved. Did any others who have had PS lose weight with skin removal? Take care Sher
