Ya. I meet all requirements. Just waiting to here. They scheduled my procedure because I work at the hospital I'm having it at. Really just courtesy from the Dr. I work with him.

We are short three people. And I work in Cath Lab which requires 24hr call as well as working 5 days a week. Its complicated getting of work in healthcare

I am so worried right now. I am scheduled next week, March 19th. I am already off work etc. However I have not been approved by insurance yet. I called yesterday and it is being processed, they said. What do I do? I am stressing out. If I cannot do it the 19th, then it will never be done. My job states its my only opportunity. Please pray and hope for approval. Thank you, Serena

Thanks everybody. I really need to know about the purees and broths and such.

Okay guys if all goes well my surgery will be in 11days, (but who's counting) March 19th. I am in need of some recipes and snack ideas for when I return to week. I am only taking a week off. So I need ideas in order to go grocery shopping before surgery. Thanks. Any ideas and recipes are welcome.

Does anyone else have Blue Cross/Blue Shield Oklahoma? How long does it take for approval? Its been a week, should I call them? I am penciled in for March 19th and approved for being off work. I work at the hospital, so the staff is holding a spot for me. But if I don't get the 19th, I won't have another chance till the end of the year. I work in Catch Lab and there is never a good time to request off but we are loosing some staff, and I was told this was basically my only shot. What do y'all think? Please pray for me.

I am scheduled for surgery on March 19th. I'm so excited. But a little worried. I work in health care and anyone who does knows getting a week off work is a miracle. With that said March 19th is my last chance to get it or I will have to do all the insurance stuff...again. So here is my question. How long did it take for you to receive an OK by insurance? Also, my Drs nurse told me Blue Cross/Blue Shield has only 14 days to say yes/no. Anybody else been told that? Also its been a week, my physician has heard anything. Do you think I should call my insurance company? Thanks so much for reading and posting. Hopefully someone has been in this situation. Thanks again.

Everything is approved. Scheduled for March 19th due to work. I am super excited!!

I'm from Konawa but love now in Durant.

I am waiting on approval but shooting for my birthday, March 5th. Prey for approval!

Thank you!!!

I am working on my last weigh in for insurance and I have gained weight 5 of the 6 weigh ins. Has anyone had this issue and still got approved. I am so worried this will effect my insurance approval. Help, please and thank you.

I have BCBS of Oklahoma. Has anyone had trouble getting approved? I am finishing my psych eval and my last weigh in on January 15th. I am praying I get approved. My BMI is 37.7 and I have fulfilled all other requirements. Has anyone worked with BCBS of Oklahoma?

Thanks everyone. I appreciate the help.

Thanks pacwomen that really helps. I have 1 weigh in and my psych eval left. So think positive for me and pray.
