Why would you need insurance to pay for a support group meeting? Is he charging dues? Is it distance? Just curious Rita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 1999 Report Share Posted October 8, 1999 hey there. Not sure why they are charging? i mean for a support group you would think you would not have to pay, even that much. its very aggravating, i mean i really need it but what can you do such is life i guess. THANKS Sue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 8, 1999 Report Share Posted October 8, 1999 My first question is WHY IS YOUR DOCTOR CHARGING YOU FOR A SUPPORT GROUP? Geez. Start one of your own and hold it in your house or somewhere. That seems a bit ridiculous to charge you to attend a support group. The one I go to is free and there is another one starting in my area that they only want $1 a meeting for to pay for the room, the film/developing of the pics taken to record our progress and so on which i also plan to attend. But to charge you $45????? Uggh. I would deeply suggest you start your own with people from the area. But that is just a suggestion. Rasley mailto:drasley@...

Guest guest Posted July 7, 2003 Report Share Posted July 7, 2003 Hi You have come to the right group I found sugar free Tang in my local supermarket but now I have found a website for it and wonder of all wonders it is much cheaper on the site so check it out: <A HREF= " http://looneystuff.safeshopper.com/23/587.htm?762 " >http://looneystuff.safe\ shopper.com/23/587.htm?762</A> I also drink the fruit flavored waters but I would not recommend the diet soda because think about it this way if you had RNY that tiny little bit of stomach is all you have left for the rest of your life to process your food. You already do not have stomach acid anymore to break down acidic sodas so they will start to eat away at your lining and even a tiny little bit works against you in the long run. That pouch is all you have until you say good bye to this world so I would take care of it as best as possible because once it is ruined or placed in jeopardy there is no turning back. For me no soda or alcoholic drink is truly worth it after surgery for the long haul.
