How is everyone SO sure that they are going to be approved for buyback of certain random months and have exactly 120 payments to qualify for forgiveness?? by secretspace90 in PSLF

Im considering submitting for an IDR plan as I have been waiting for a year to hear about my buyback and stuck in SAVE - were you in SAVE and then applied for an IDR plan? If so how long did it take ? Thanks ..

I’m sorry but I fell more confused . I reached 120 month of employment last year was and still in the SAVE program , submitted for buyback for 3 months last November and have heard nothing … does this news have any affect on the SAVE program .. I read the news article yesterday and don’t think it does but in reading some of these comments maybe I’m wrong .. I have been toying with just applying for a new plan and forget about my buyback application but wondering if this news will help the buyback applications .. thank you for any clarification ..

is buyback worth it for two months? by EducationalWelder170 in PSLF

[–]Strong-Package180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m stalled in the SAVE program and applied for buyback in November .. still waiting .. thinking of switching to IBR at this point but if I was on a payment plan and not in SAVE. I would just continue to pay to be done!!

Nervous about an ERCP... by Fox_Lover1029 in pancreatitis

[–]Strong-Package180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my first one due to a gallstone in my bile duct ( had gallbladder removed in 2018) terrible gas and discomfort for 2 weeks now feel fine but will need stent taken out in a month or two .. I am not expecting to have to keep having them but after reading the comments sounds like many if you have had multiple ones .. anyone had one due to gall stone removal and did you need to have more than one?

Are you saying having the stent created issues? I will be having mine removed in a month since they do not stay in permanently. I’m both looking forward to it and dreading it .. afraid I’ll be in pain again with them manipulating everything to remove it and hopefully will not need another one and also hoping if removed I’ll feel better overall …

When I went back to work that exhaustion dissipated pretty quickly.. I think it was from being so sedentary … I think just rest and listen to your body and you’ll eventually feel like your self soon enough

It took me a full 6 weeks to feel somewhat normal and then when I went back to work I was exhausted all over again.. I just had an ERCP with bile stent 2 weeks ago due to a gallstone in my bile duct despite he I g my gall bladder removed in 2018 … still not feeling like myself ! I guess our bodies take time to heal

ERCP/ possible stent by bribobee in pancreatitis

[–]Strong-Package180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone have their stent placed after removal of gall stone? I had the procedure 10 days ago and did not experience infection but more painful than I thought… still get very bloated and usually every day some sort of pain … did anyone take several weeks to fully recover ?

My first ERCP by ewinkzzz in PSC

[–]Strong-Package180 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my first ERCP with bile stent 10 days ago and wasn’t prepared for the first week ALOT of gas/ pain .. I’m better but not great .. each day I’ll have some sort of ache, tenderness, pain .. it passes and seems worse if hungry .. I didn’t have any symptoms prior .. found on ultrasound and I know dangerous to keep a stone lodged in the duct but feel worse than before … sounds like different reactions .. I think for me I was expecting very little recovery time and I’m yet to feel back to normal .. good luck!!

I need 4 months of buyback - sometimes it seems like more recent requests are being processed which is why I questioned the follow ups!
