Batwing Removal - ATTN: MetalGirl

Hi Tracy!!!! This is the post I was looking for! I had questions regarding how long your recovery time was for the surgery. I am looking into having my batwings done first since from what I have been reading, it is done outpatient and you're only off work 3-7 days. How long were you off work? The rest of my PS will need to be done after January 2006 since I don't have a lot of time to take off from work this year - I've already got a bunch of vacations booked -- plus I think for all other areas of my body, I'm not finished losing -- but my arms are more than ready!!!! Thanks!!!! Dayna DaynaE at aol dot com -------------------------------- Tracy (MetalGirl) wrote on 10/10/05....... Hi AMOS IL friends OMG!!! I got awesome news! I found out I am approved to get my batwings and thigh flaps removed! Looks like I'm doing them both on the same day...outpatient November 29th My PS took some pics...I had no rashes but I did have a couple of those little zit things. I have been so lucky with my insurance(BC/BS HMO IL)....... No fighting to get my RNY WLS, They paid for a TT w/ mucle repair and a breast lift, and now my arms and thighs. I wish I could/ve got a date when the kids were off school...but oh well! I'm just hoping it's not as bad as the TT in relation to pain! Hope everyone is having a great day! Tracy

Oops, make that January 2007, lol.....
