Topic: RE: I am on my way now

That is wonderful news Willa. I am so happy you are getting to a good place on your wl journey.

I am curious if Dr. Nease makes patients wait that long between fills or is this specific for your case?

I called the office today but Tabitha will not be in untill tomarrow. I was a little disappointed at first but perspective kicked in. I was off a bit last week and have tried to catch up today (did not do well). My throat is still sore anyway so I have to wait till it is better.

My husband is just the opposite on the grudge thing. He gets over things in two minutes and I am left two hours later still mad and noone to argue with.

Great things always, Crystal

     Hi   I had an upper GI this morning to see why I wasnt lossing weight as fast as I should have been   the radologist sp went ahead and told me the band was fine and that the opening is just a bit larger than it could be   so  the fill I had last Tuesday may have done the trick  so  now maybe I will get some good results   Dr. Neace wanted the GI to make sure I didnt have a slip or something else going on  so all is like t should be  and if I can be good until Nov and maybe get the last little fill then  I just may loose enough to make a difference
   that sounds good to me     have a good Monday   mine is half and half  good news from the doc  but then my husband and I got into it over some thing so silly and he is holding a grudge   MEN esp men that hads had strokes      some days I need to just scream  and scream

Debbie,

Dr. Freeman at WVU Hospital is very good. I don't know anything about the prices.

Good luck,
Melissa

It all depends on the surgeon. The plastic surgeon in Pittsburgh that has been on TV charges about twice that and goes up depending on how much is to be done.

I had a consult with Dr. Stephen Miller in Huntington and for the belt cut, I don't remember what he really called it and the inner thighs it was going to run $11,000. Same thing it all has to be paid up front.

Sounds like good advice about the gall bladder surgery. I had mine removed by the same one who did my by pass the week prior to my RNY. I had gall stones that was found in testing prior to surgery and although I was not having problems from it he said I would. It was a piece of cake.

Thank you Willa. I am pretty excited and this can not happen fast enough for me. Classes start Aug 25.
 
I got my associates degree in May in Accounting and I am going for the Bachelors degree now. School has always been easy for me. I am lucky that way. Wish I had not waited so long to do this. I kept making excuses and putting it off.

I will let you know just as soon as I get my date. I really count on the support and excitement I get here. I know you have all been through this before.

Thanks for everything. Crystal
