Hi! Saw my Dr. About continuous neck and back issues . He decided a reduction may be covered and I took 8 months to choose a surgeon. I also was approved for Ohip panniculectomy. I have 3 sections and one pregnancy with baby loss. I have excessive skin due to srcdre eclampsia / water swelling and rapid weight loss . Can't wait

Also should mention I opted for Bra roll lipo that is where the $3700 cost comes in.

I know it is only sort of related but if you don't mind me asking how was it working with regards to getting it covered by the province? I am having a hard time finding a surgeon who will deal with OHIP

The surgery went well . Dr MA has such good calming abilities! I was in for 5 hrs vs the 2 or 3 I thought. Woke up and then within an hr was throwing up alot .. they gave me every anti nausea med you can think of and I made it home. Minimal paid last night. Lipo ( bra roll) And my panniculectomy are so swollen . NO DRAINS where put in . Woke up this am in so much pain.. My arms kill. Can't get comfortable. Thknk.half the issue is I slept in bed and not inclined enough?

Wow, I have never heard of Ohip panniculectomy, I had Bariatric Surgery‎ in 2006 and wish I knew this procedure was covered by insurance. It looks like this may only be covered in Ontario by OHIP. I have client in Toronto, Kitchener, Brampton, & Richmond Hill so I spend several days a month there.

For sleeping I would recommend investing in a wedge pillow. In my experience when I lie flat getting up produced the worst stabbing and ripping pain.

Please continue to document your journey when you have an opportunity. Get some rest and all the best with your recovery.

Thank you:) I will . I didn't think I would be approved but with weight loss after pre eclampsia and the skin I was a good candidate ( although a tummy tuck would have been ideal for looks )

Lots of swelling. It isn't perfect * it is not a full tuck * but it is such an improvement already.
