Round 2?

I didn't realize how much I'd been a ghost recently My weight has stabilized relatively decently Now the time has come to seek some plastic surgery and with the help of hernia and other forms of injury this process might be paid and once the surgery has made my tummy tucked in I will look somewhat more thin On July the 30th, tentitavely the procedure will occur... erm...  bearibly pleasantly? Dave :)

Hi there!  I just started checking out the CT state site and wish I had hooked up with it sooner.  There are such great people on here!  You've done so very well.  Congratulations and best wishes on your PS.  Keep us posted on how it goes. Cindy

You will do fine. Hope things get covered by insurance.Let us know how you  make out. All the best for quick and hopefully not to painfull recovery. Sher

wishing you a speedy recovery. let us know how you make out.

Best of luck, Dave.  And...I hope that insurance pays all of the procedures.

What surgeon did you pick to do it?

Dr. Chech is the one I am going with, although I met Dr. Borkowski as well and he sounded fine.  The situation was more a matter of finding someone who could fit me in their schedule this summer. If anyone is interested, I will let people know how this all plays out, but for now I am trying to increase the level of exercise and weight loss, especially if it involves walking, photography, and the outdoors.

hi dave, best wishes to you. i am sure you will do terrificly and recovery quickly...cyndee

h... so going to take the BIG jump I see. Did you meet with the Dr. yet? Joanne just finished her 3rd follow up, and she is still tickled with him. Next visit... one full month. Peter

Yes, I already met with both of them.  His scheduler is actually encouraging me to bother her- to make sure things are going well with the process. He is funny- loves speaking in analogies.  He basically was suggesting that I buy a "buick" surgery instead of a "Mercedes" surgery... in terms of invasiveness, risk, expense, and potential outcome. Dave

Dr. Chech is an awesome doc!!!!  I used to work for his group (Connecticut Surgical Group) and have an appointment with Dr. Babigian.  I actually know (professionally and personally) a lot of people who have had tummy tucks and breast reductions by him and they have turned out fabulous. 

Keep us informed and GOOD LUCK!!!!
