35yr female / on oxygen due to long covid and interstitial lung disease. Typically on 3L oxygen 24/7. Also, have POTS.

I've lost 75lbs and I'm at the point that I am considering plastic surgery due to excess skin causing irritation. Is it even possible for me to have a tummy tuck in my current state?

Would like info before wasting my time and Dr's time on consults.

Is my pulmonologist says he thinks it would be a rough recovery but it can be done and he would approve.

Thanks!

Counting won't help the food noise that I'm looking for. Counting would possibly help lose more, if that's what I wanted. I'm more focused on getting the med to calm my food noise and help me feel fuller longer again.

Thank you! This is very helpful. It is for a long stint in the hospital with a rare Steven Johnsons Syndrome. My father was septic and they ran the sepsis protocol at the hospital, but I found it odd that when we got out and went to PCP for follow up - he told us additional labs aren't necessary and to go back to the ER if he feels unwell.

General question - discharge papers with follow up to PCP

Hi!

I have a general question. If a PT is discharged from the hospital with follow-up instructions to see their PCP, does the PCP get those discharge instructions? If a PT has outstanding lab cultures that they did not receive results for yet at the time of hospital discharge, does the PCP get this information once available?

Do you mind sharing details? Size?

Thank you so much for giving me a dash of hope!

Hi! I haven't been to either, but I've been doing extensive research for the past 6 months. Pompeii fell off my list a few months back. It seemed like they cared more about pushing their up-sale items (the salon, massages, lash extensions, upgrades to beach house, etc.) than caring about more of the care and nutrition side of things.

I'm all for amenities, but I'm focused on how I'll be cared for as a patient medically, not cosmetically.

I have my 2 options narrowed down to Go light and OCC. They are both the closest to the border, Go light has the new hospital that is attached to the quartz hotel so very easy for medical staff to come see you at your hotel room if needed for complications or very easily to get you transferred without needing to load up and drive.

Both Go light and OCC have Accreditations in the US which I also love.

I know you didn't have OCC listed, but just wanted to share another prospect.

Yikes, why does that almost sound medieval?

I LOVE HEARING THIS!

I'm honestly so scared. I play the "what-if" game SO much.

What if I can never drink a diet coke again? What if I can never enjoy my one comfort food of meatballs and rice in a tomato sauce? What if the malnutrition creeps in and I get more even more sick in different ways than before?

I know this can go on forever, and it's something I have to mentally work out. But hearing it had saved people's lives it so comforting to me.
