30 pound panniculectomies?

[Guest guest]

I have a question. Does anyone know of anybody who's had a

panniculectomy in which 30 or more pounds of tissue was removed and

there were no major complications?

By major complications, I mean a wound complication that lasted more

than a week, blood transfusions, unexpected bleeding, longer than

anticipated hospital stays, or anything else the patient considered

major?

BTW, I'm lindawls on aol.com. Anyone is welcome to e-mail me

privately, even if they're pre-op or less than one year out, now or

any time.

in St. Louis

Used to weigh 500, now weigh 250-something

Able to bench press 50 pounds!!!
