Does lightening strike twice? I hope so!!!!

 Yea - I know you're wondering 'WTF is she trippin on now?'  LOL!

I went to my plastic surgeon today - yes.... back again.  I wanted to talk about doing my back - and before you go there - YES - it is an issue - I have rolls and not just dinner rolls, not just sub sammich rolls but HOAGIE rolls back there..... when he lifted up the 2nd set, he asked if I'd already had surgery - I told him no - he mistook the scars from the rashes I've had in the creases for a surgical scar..... ~smh~ 

anyhoo - I talked with the lady that got my TT last year approved - she wants to try again for UHC to go in on revising my TT scar (have a lil bubble in the middle of skin and fat - that was expected, the man cut a toddler off me) and for the upper body lift.  Lawd - that woman made magic happen last year, if she pulls this off, I think I may just make her my personal superhero. 

So, fam - if you got it in you - pray or just wish me well as I try this one.  Either way, it's gonna get done, I will be able to start saving $$ in Sept and either by UHC and me or alone, before the end of 2011 - something's gonna happen.  

Thanks for listening!!!! 

I'll be praying for ya. Do you know the codes she used to get the procedures approved? I am living in positivity, knowing I will reach goal and the get the skin cut off.

no idea on the codes - is that on the EOB?

Sounds like you've got a good shot at getting this covered.  Even if it was all paid for I've decided that I can live with this skin.  Its not too bad although its not too pretty either.  The pain of recovery is more bother some to me than the sagging skin. 

I hope your miracle worker can get all of this paid through uhc.  With the rash looking like a scar and all another miracle approval is in the making.  Fingers crossed for you. 

Chile - the recovery is NO JOKE!!!!!  But - this time would only be skin - it's the muscle repair of the TT that is the devil!!!

thanks for the well wishes! 

Trina, I'm praying for you girl!!  I'm not sure which type of lipo you are having, but I had liposelection done with Vaser on my back and I will have some more done this year.  I loved it.  VERY little bruising or down time.

Thanks Brenda!  I wish I could get away with lipo only - I still need a lot of nippin and tuckin! lol

  Hoping for the best for ya!

thanks kim!!!

btw - that's a 'thug hug' - you know, not full on, but just the shoulder touch...... followed by a dap and chin up....... LOL! 

I have rolls on my back and sides too.  If they were gone, I would probably be 2 sizes smaller.  I'd cut those suckers off myself if I could.

Totally understand how you're feeling and I wish you all the best.
