At 2pm today, I pick my surgery date and I'm assuming it will be in September, so I just wanted to say heyyyyyy everyone, Ill check back in after 2pm

congratulations, did you get a date yet, and I'm doing the dance right with you, we could possibly getting sleeved around the same timeThat's great. So happy for you too. Yesterday on the phone the coordinator said September 14th was open but she was going to look in the calendar to see if there is earlier. She said they won't do it before the holiday week. they still haven't gave me a date, I'm still waiting ugh but congrats again. Keep me updated please ur the first person that i know on here that submitted around me lolWill do. I hope you hear soon. What's the delay in scheduling if you got approval already. I don't know but after I read your post, it gave me reassurance that I should have a date, so I called and I go at 2pm to pick a date with the insurance cordinator, thank you so much, so after 2, Ill have my date whoot whoot :D:D

@@byebyefat i think it's ok that you called dr's office taking matters in your own hands you have the right!!! you were waiting for approval from insurance i can relate to your anxiety i think administrator did drop the ball she would probably "eventually" realize she wasn't on top of your case but you forging ahead was good - taking charge of yourself make sure you (everyone) ALWAYS are nice/respectful to OP catch more flies with honey glad you got a positive response /reply for surgery hopefully surgery will be scheduled sooner than later your comment "most likely won't sleep till tomorrow lol" get over it!! deal with it you know what a grouch you can be in the morning without your 8 hours of sleep sweet dreams good luck speedy recovery kathy thank you so much, I sound like a lil kid on the phone, i couldnt sound or be mean if i wanted too lol

thank you so much :D

Follow-up, I was approved, yayyyyyyy it was submitted on Friday and got the call around noon it was approved today, I have to wait for registration to give me a call tommorow with surgery dates, I most likely won't sleep till tommorow lol
