I also did the three months with Aetna in a Center of Excellance, multidisciplinary approach. They are submitting me next week for approval with the three months. I am going to keep up with my weight tracking and weigh ins just to be safe. I have heard they approve fast but the center I am going to does not deal with them a lot so they can't give me a time frame.

WHOO HOO! That is SOO awesome!! I am going through UPMC but with Aetna insurance. They are submitting me next week. I can hardly stand it.

Way to go!!! It's such an awesome feeling.

Hi and good luck. I have found research and this board has helped me tremendously. I've never had surgery so it has helped with the anxiety. -
Hi!! Great support here. :-)
-
Welcome and good luck. Never heard of soup and jelly. Is that for preop?

Hi and welcome. This is the best place. Great people and support.

Pre-Op Testing - It Should Not Be This Hard...

I'm so surprised no one has mentioned pregnancy to me. I'm 40 and married. My hubby had a vasectomy in April but they don't know that. -

Pre-Op Testing - It Should Not Be This Hard...

At the hospital now. EKG, chest X-ray and upper GI all done. Waiting for nutrition and psyche appointments. Does anyone know what is required from your OBGYN? I guess just a check up and Pap smear. I'll have to ask today. Hope all this comes out ok. -
These look good but watch the salt with nutri-system. They can be high in sodium which can cause bloating and dehydration.

I use dannon light and fit. 80 calories and 12 grams of protein. Really tasty and the vanilla is not sour at all. I get it at Walmart.

I should be able to submit for approval in the next week or so. I have most of my testing next week and my last weigh in is 10-9. I am hoping for an early/mid Nov date. If not I will have to wait until after December 17 because of work. Fingers crossed!

You are correct! I have my upper GI, Chest X-ray, nutrition and psyche eval Monday. Yippee! I would love to squeeze in my EKG but may not have enough time. Wish me luck!! -
I just don't get his. We are the clients. Sigh. Hang in there Hun!!

Hello! I am also going to Magee. So far I like my surgeon but the staff is not very helpful. I am hoping for a Nov date but they are so backed up with the nutritionists it may get pushed to Jan. Fighting with them now.
