Guest guest Posted November 21, 2002 Report Share Posted November 21, 2002 Hi all, Well I will be going to the doc next wednesday, the day before Turkey day! He wants to go over, in detail, my reasons for wanting plastics...a tummy tuck. Remember I am in Denmark. They are very conservative. They will do this surgery but I want it paid for. I feel like my reasons are medically nessary but not sure they will agree. Any suggestions are welcome. In the states, I was denied but they did not actually speak with me. They only wanted pics and it was a military hospital. I have looked over the pics yall have posted and I can say by the looks, I compare as average to everyone else after WLS. My reasons are simple, other than the way I look. I am tired of having to pull my stomac up to keep clean. I am a very clean person by the way. I can barely see my pubic area. In the summer time a sweat there, horribly. One can only use so much absorbant powder. I keep my bikini line shaved always...I always have but I tend to get rashes because of the overlap. My other reason is that if I stand for very long, my lower back really hurts. This may be the stomac or my chest. I'd like to get those pulled back up as well but I feel like I'm pushing it there. Same reasons there. I have always been large chested but now they are severely south! I am 9 and a half yrs. post op. I feel like having the original surgery added yrs to my life. Now I only want comfort. I'm sure you all know what it's like to put on a pair of jeans. The pair looks great if you are wearing a shirt that is untucked. Tucked in, I look like I have a butt in the front and back. Thanks in advance, Dawn RYN 5-17-93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
