Re: Off the list for awhile - ANOTHER hernia

[Guest guest]

Oh ,

I'm so sorry to hear that! You have gone through so much and just have gotten

this awesome body, and to have to have a hernia repair just SUCKS for lack of

a better word!

I'll keep you in my prayers! You have shared so much good info with us! We

really appreciate your amazing transformation and light of encouragement,

always.

Hugs,

I'm sorry to hear about you having another hernia. I guess if you

can call it an upside, at least your insurance will help pay now. I

am very sorry that it had to be this way though. I will keep you in

my thoughts and prayers.

> I went for my consult today with the Plastic surgeon regarding

removing the rest of the excess skin I have. I had found an area

around my belly button a few days ago I suspicion was a hernia. I

showed it to my husband, and as husbands are, of course he tried to

comfort me that it wasn't that. Well it IS! What this means is that

instead of having to pay for the entire procedure tomorrow we will

have to pay for the surgeon's fee because there is a medically

necessary hernia repair that also needs to take place so my insurance

will be responsible for the anesthesia, operating room and hospital

stay. What it does to me is bring on panic because of the ordeal I

went through with the hernia repair I had in October and having to go

back into surgery in November to remove permanent stitches.

please email me privately as I am going to go no mail for a few days

while I am in the hospital and for a day or two after I return.
