OH Support Group Leader
My local support group meets the 2nd Tuesday of each month - please message me for further information
We are on a continuous journey without a destination
What blows my mind is that it is all outpatient!!!
I am having a septoplasty next month and my doc insists it will be inpatient. The good news is that my insurance approved it.
Not so sure I would want to be outpatient with plastics but I have a way to go before I worry about that. Need to start documenting.
I did fine as an outpatient. I think that's pretty standard. Maybe you have to stay overnight if you have multiple procedures. One consult I had wanted to do a complete LBL and that would have required one overnight stay.
Saw Dr V a week later for drain removal.
I am going to have my arms done in 2012.
I think you'll be happy both w/ Dr V and his staff.
Come and join our group of Losers !!!!!
have you decidied on PS with Dr V? I have been looking into it myself and heard about Dr V's prices.
is his tummy tuck also outpatient? is that usual?
I really enjoyed meeting you as well. I too wished we would have had more time, but there is always OH, email and of course maybe an OH event in our future!!!.
I am glad to know that you made it home safe and sound. Look forward to hopefully talking with you in the future.
Hugs!

When I first started out ont his journey, the day of my surgery(November 21,2010) I weighed 289 pounds, today May 16,2011 I weighed myself and the scales read 188.6 I think I steooed on the scales about 5 more times just to make sure it was right and i wasnt getting the wrong reading . I am 33 and haved been under 200 since I was 15 !!!! I was so Happy but was in tears at the same time.!This has definately been a incredible journey so far!
