“Weight Loss and Tummy Tuck - Augusta, GA”

Not Sure
Spent: $800 in AUGUSTA GA
Spent: $800 in AUGUSTA GA
I,ve lost 120 lbs in the last 2 years. I am an avid gym goer and weight lifter. Although not as bad as I anticipated, there is this awful excess skin mostly from being so heavy. I also had 2 c-sections that contributed to the condition.
I would really like to have the flat belly I cannot gain with healthy living, but have worked very hard toward achieving. I have excess skin on my arms and thighs as well, but will address the belly area first before considering anything else. I don't intend to get any lipo, just the removal of the excesss skin.
My insurance will cover 90% of the cost as it was detirmined to be medically necessary.
Updated on 3 Jan 2012:
I was originally scheduled for the 8th of dec. the date was moved up to the 5th. I was uncomfortable with a few things that happened with my ps and I changed docs. Date was then moved to the 28th. Muchbetter situation except now I am way behind where I had planned to be at this time! Had allergic reaction to tape used on eyelids during surgery. They are swollen almost shut and covered with tiny blisters. I look like h$!?! Today i will see the ps and the scar. Hope all is looking good. I have one drain that doesn't seem to get too full often. I dont know when he intends to remove it. All was going well until I sneezed last night. OMG that was excruciating! It still hurts today. I hope I didn't do any harm! Well, I will see the doc today. I hope you all are well!

Great job on the weight loss:) So next week is your day and I am sure you are getting really excited about now!
Focus on one thing at a time and worry about the arms and thighs later. Baby steps here, Would love to see your before and after pictures if you are comfortable posting them.
Hang in there and it will get better. But I am sorry you are having such pain:( The sneezes are the worst ever.
I am sure you didn't do any harm but I know how that hurts.
