Dr. Gregg Jossart is my surgeon for my future sleeve, hopefully at the end of this month (waiting for ins. approval)

Yeah, that ticker is wishful thinking on my part. Thats the date that my surgeon gave me but if we don't get approval in the next two weeks, I'm sure we'll have to push that date into July or later my surgeon only comes to the hospital in my network like 2 times a month.

Well, my pre-auth has to go to my husband fund managers (even though we have BC PPO of CA) and I called them again today and they finally said they have received it and they will be forwarding to a panel of doctors that they use to see if they believe the surgery is a medical necessity . It was sitting on someones desk for 3 weeks. My daughter and I are trying to have the surgery done on the 26th but somehow I don't think it's gonna happen and we are going to be postponed once again. I'm so ready to have this big change in my life and it seems to be taking a lot longer than I thought

I totally agree with you!! I've been waiting 2 weeks and I've called every week and nothing so frustrating... I know exactly what you are going through. Good luck and wish me some too.
