Your surgeon should let you know what you should not take and give you a timeline.  I know that aspirin and vitamin E and K can effect clotting.

150 pounds on your own!!  WOW, that is soo amazing!!

about the period:  don't worry!!!!

I am pre-menopausal, and didn't have a period for 3 month before I had my RNY, then, of course, the MORNING of surgery... there it was!!  lol  they all told me, it was no big deal,happens all the time,  put a huge pat underneath me, and off we went :) 
I am having TT/lipo on Tuesday... so OF COURSE I am expecting that my period will show up too,
lol  can't do one without the other, lol 

the onset of menopause is sure a crazy thing... you never know when or how long.... but I sure ENJOY the month in between... it's like a new found freedom!! LOVE IT!!  

best wishes to you. Karin

Thank you soooo much for your candid response! What you described is exactly what I imagine happening.. LOL  You guys have put my mind at ease on that one!! :)
Good luck to you on your upcoming surgery and congrats!!! 
Yes, while 150 lbs is a lot of weight to lose, I am still at 350 (which if I lost another 100 I'd be happy) so I still have a long way to go but this panni needs to go!! LOL

Thanks again!

I am SO so so Happy for you! I was just reading your personal letter to me about how frustraing the process has been for you.

We have the same insurance company.... Ok.. so NOW you are on to other thoughts and ideas and getting ready to get on the loosers bench in June... thats SO close!
Can I ask you how you did it??
2 times being denied with Anthem right?? Oh... I gotta know! How did you do it?? 

I hope to be in your shoes and on the same loosers bench!!

Congratulations! Dilagence has paid off !

Shoot.. I may have read to fast..
so let me get this right...
its for a Panniculectomy..... not WLS?

Ok. I saw the approval and jumped!!
I am SO excited that you are getting this surgery done.. !!  Are we still waiting on the WLS procedure approval??
I jumped the gun... AHHHH!! :)
Just happy for you!

Thank you!! Yes, it's just for the panniculectomy... I haven't had the WLS.. I gave up waiting and I just figured, I lost all this weight on my own, I could do it again, just needed to get this yucky pannus off of me. It's so difficult near impossible to move around and with all the "other" stuff that comes along with it I went for this..
Yes, I am SOOO excited to get it off. Shocked at the same time I actually got approved. I've been waiting since January for the approval (they were so slow).. No appeals either! Yay!

I saw you had an RNY? How are you doing with that? I hope it went well. I'm happy that you got a surgery! (you know, I've been hearing they're going to start approving the VSG really soon).. That figures!! LOL
