Hi Jessb418, and the others that commented. I have Medicare and they too required this stupid wait period. Even my surgeon did not agree. I also have 4 high stakes health issues that make me feel like that ticking time bomb too. Nothing 2 different doctors could say to them made any change. Now, the six months are over and I have just met again with this surgeon, and he and I came too the conclusion that if for nothing else, it gave me TIME to research and learn all about this, plus to be absolutely sure that this is what I really want to do. I'm just looking for the bright side!
