Just got out of gyno surgery this morning ...

[tatteredxangelx]

And the $3 I paid for my percocet cost me more than the surgery itself I'm so fucking happy. god bless blue cross/blue shield and a big public shoot out and thank you to my man roodogg for helping me set this up. THANK YOU SO MUCH BUDDY!

 

[JJDADOG]

Good luck with the recovery...Can I ask How you got insurance to pay for it???

 

[SacToSD]

good job, bro. Did they let you keep the breast glands? Only kidding, have a quick recovery

 

[tatteredxangelx]

I told the doctor that they hurt and i had them since i was 15, and when i went to the doctor than, he said that they would go away and they never did. he asked if i took steroids or smoked pot and I said "NEVER!" so he said ok. And instead of calling it "gyno" i read at the surgery center, the nurse had it is as bilateral removal of breast mass.

i really have had gyno since 15, it really does hurt, i have never smoked, never done steroids. I have been going to my doc for the last 2 years trying to convince him its not going away. Doc said "insurance won't cover it, take ibuprofen 3 times a day if it starts bothering you." ....any advice?

 

[fishtownflexin]

Go to a different doctor. Also maybe try telling them that breast cancer runs in your family that may help

oh yeah, I also said both my grandma's died from breast cancer and that I Was very worried and would like it tested.

question

tattered or anyone else - how does your doctor work with your insurance company to figure out expenses?
example: doctor says you need it removed; insurance pays for it? or doctor says to deal with at and insurance doesn't pay for it?

 

[nziegs]

one more thing

...how do you guys play it off like it might be cancerous? I had an ultra sound done and it isn't cancerous...wouldn't they do that with everyone else before performing a surgery?

 

[dragonfire101]

I had ultrasound and a mammogram on a lump that hurt and was swollen. It was not cancerous and they did nothing for it. Didn't even give me any medication for it. Pretty much told to deal with it.

alot of surgeons will settle for whatever insurance pays. Find a General Surgeon who specializes in breasts Insurance does not want a bill from a Cosmetic Dr.

I read about the surgery a few yrs ago, but was wondering if there has been advances since.. Where did they make your incisions? And do you have a tube in there to drain fluid?

 

[mike1107]

you are very lucky

I need to get mine done ... will have my first appointment pre-surgery in april

Get a good surgeon and don't be cheap. You can end up with divots where you had bumps. No big deal if you are fat but at low bodyfat you can end up looking fairly odd.

 

[RONJON]

yea if anyone has some b4 and after pics that would be nice...i hear getting the surgery is LIFE CHANGING for some and your chest will look totally different and much much better...
