I hope I'm in the right place

Hi Maureen,
Wow ! You guys know sooo much more than me. I have gone searching on net for procedures but realise now that I was looking in the wrong place. I really do wish I had found this site two years ago. It is such a load of my mind, not having to constantly moan to my husband or keep things to myself. I'm going to google the procedures you have mentioned. It must be very difficult in the US with the health insurance side of things. Although our National Health Service is not all great. Waiting lists are extremely long and if I hadn't have been covered through my husbands private work health insurance then I would probably still be on a waiting list and who knows if I'd even have got the right type of specialist. When I see my surgeon in Jan I am definitely going to mention these procedures and see what if anything is available. Although I'm not sure if the medical insurance would cover anything that they deem to be 'cosmetic' rather than corrective. Need to try though. Acupuncture is something I hadn't thought of either....so many things to consider now.
Don't be giving up hope though, it seems there is lots of it around here to pass on !
Take care, Ali

Hi Ali~
I had the T3 in March 2008 and it was considered "functional" cosmetic surgery by insurance & Johns Hopkins. I don't exactly how the paralysis affects you (ex. speech, eating, drinking) but those are all daily skills needed to "function" in life...
Just wanted to throw that in while I'm thinking about it!

K.  ;D
