Please help

Ok, I need your help once again. I am in Rock Hill, SC, and on Wednesday I am going to a family doctor to talk about my hernia. I have SC Medicaid for now, but I need to go ahead and have this fixed while I can. Will I be able to have any reconstructive surgery done at the same time that I have this hernia fixed? Who do you guys go to here in Rock Hill? Has anyone had their TT done at the same time as an incisional hernia repair here? Thanks guys, I dont know where I would be without you!!! *Pam* White -137 .lbs and counting

Hi Pam, Hey we are neighbors I live in Chester SC. I really can not answer your questions I just talked to my doctor today about what would happen if I have a heinal Herina since I have such bad heart burn. If I do it will be repaired same time as my Lap Band. I persum you had RYN? I have read that many do have reconstructive at the same time.. ie tummy tuck? Best thing to do is talk to your PCP and see if he can line that up for you. As long as its stated I think that it is medically needed because of infections and stuff ( where fat hangs down and causes this) insurance usually will cover it, well I should say most. My insurance doesnt cover any of those types or even my Lap Band so I have to go to Mexico. Going on the 23rd of this month. I can tell you a great Dr. I know in Rock Hill though he is a surgen and I know him personally because he did work on my mother in Law. Dr. Caine. Great Doctor!! Just very down to earth and easy to talk to . Best of luck and stay in touch!

Pam, this is the 8th. We are having a Plastic Surgeon tonight at the support meeting. He could probably answer your questions. Robin
