that is all put on hold for now. sadly! husband lost his job so no money to do it. I still want to have it done though. thanks for remembering me!

Hello! i just wanted to check in on you. I remember you said you were in the process of having your surgery with Dr. Duncan...how did that go for you? I am almost a year out and I am doing pretty good! No complications, and I'm trying to get this carb moster under control, otherwise no complaints! Except I wish I dumped!! But that's another story... Anyway just wanted to say hi hope all is well!

Wanted to correct the information I gave you about medicare costs. It seems as the hospitol and medicare have an agreed upon price which is much lower than the bill price. Medicare pays about $12,ooo which leaves a copay of about $1,200 for the stay. The surgeon in my case charged about $6,000 and I assume he has a similar agreement to accept a lower payment from medicare so the co pay will be ? based on thier agreement. The anesthesia doc charged $2400 and I have not found out what he accutauly gets paid by medicare. The good thing is you pay your co pay based on the amount medicare pays the doctor or hosp. Hope this helps, sorry for the wrong information on my last post.
