You look great. Same Doctor is doing same procedures this Friday. Can you give me a few tips. Thanks

Congratulations! I would say prepare for the back pain I didn't know there would be back pain or discomfort also the drains are uncomfortable for sure. Try and walk as soon as your feeling better cause it does help also the pain isnt to bad but everyone is different so prepare your self for the pain. I took my pain meds only as needed so it was bearable keep me posted on your progress!

Thanks. Anything I need to purchase before, by the way I got approved for Panni and abdominalplasty via BcBs.
October 27, 2014
No I didn't purchase anything just wear your binder thr whole time only take it off to shower. Yes I got approved thru united healthcare for both procedures! I think its a must to have both procedures. Im very happy with my results! Did you lose alot of weight?
October 27, 2014
Weight loss 80 lbs. I'm so nervous. So happy I am able to talk to someone that use same Dr. They didn't tell me to purchase binder in advance. My preop is Thursday morning. Would you recommend Dr. Long?? R use him again?
October 27, 2014
They will give you one dont buy one I still use mines daily. He was ok very nice and was honest with me about the results I would get so I was prepared to not look like a model or have a 6 pack LOL but he said I would be alot better then we're I was so yes Im satisfied with results and would use him again.

Hello,
Does anyone know what all I will need to purchase before surgery? They havent let me know yet I think there gonna wait till pre-op testing or something but if anyone knows what necessary itmes you felt you needed to have to make it a little easier please let me know! Also what binder or girdle helped you the most? I have seen so far the Squeem had good reviews for people...Thanks!!
