The lady at Aetna just said she's gonna call them to see if they need any additional papers on that department to approve it or not. I'm so nervous. She put me on hold

So I'm calling them And they saying still under review

Hmmm

Oh k. Thanks.

Does it hurt when they pull the pump out? I'm having mine in syosset hospital and they said I can't have nobody in the room. Only visitor hrs 11 to 8pm. That really sucks

Wow. I'm so happy to hear everything went as planned or even better. Mine is approaching and I'm freakin out ! It's the truth. I been told they will leave a leaking bag attached to my stomach from the outside and every often I have to empty it out and so on .. I'm so nervous ..

I know. Thaks for being supportive.. =)

She said still pending. To call back tomorrow or everyday from now on. ="(

Omg. I'm calling right now. She has me on hold! I'm so nervous

Im gonna call them today. Lets see what happens. Just coming back from pst now

Me too. I moved very fast. There was a lot of things though. Anyways. I'm almost there. Just coming from the seminar they make u go before surgery. They talked about anesthesia and the drain pack they leave attached and what you will see before surgery and they even took me to see a couple of rooms from where I will be stayin. These people are really on top of their game. I feel more secure now

@duckyinlove.. After dietician and if you have completed everything with all your doctors. U need to visit your primary so he can give you the clearance and with that you take everything to your surgeon. A wk after or so your surgeon will schedule a visit so u can sign the consent forms with him and after that you have to wait for the insurance approval and then you have to go to your pre testings at the hospital and then you should hear when your surgery date is

I have sleep apnea too but I don't know if I should call my insurance even though the surgeon assistant said not to. .. She said just to give them a few more days

I know. I'm Nervous for that too. But everything should be ok.. Do you think it's a good idea to call the insurance ! Im so curious.. And worried.. .. I cant stop going to YouTube and checking updates on people that had it done already.. And I guess preparing my mind to what is coming .. I'm counting the days. 15 more days to go. And very nervous

Yeah.. I'm just drinking crystal light right now. .. And stressing

I called the surgeon's office to ask them about it and she said ( not yet). I asked her if I should call and she said no , to leave them alone. I don't know what to do. My pre testing is tomorrow and I'm just getting discourage ..

No answer yet.. Still waiting for approval. 1 week past

Omg congrats.. Everything will be ok. I'm excited for you. Mine is in 16 days. Tomorrow I will start all liquids .. Not thrilled but I have to do it. Please keep us up to date. I wanna know how you woke up. If there was pain and how u felt. Thanks nd I'll be thinking of u

I been drinking crystal lite and eating a salad with chicken and lots of veggies later in the afternoon and I don't feel hungry that much. When I do. I eat tangerines and that's all. My surgery is April 17th and I'm nervous but anxious.. On the 3rd. I have to go to a seminar to prepare myself for surgery and on the 4th. I have to go for pre surgery testing and then I need a final final medical clearance from my doctor and praying the insurance will approve my surgery and that's it. My date has been schedule already .
