    Still Waiting

    :smile:Hi Tyrind, Did you ever get your approval from BC/BS of Michigan? I have been wondering as I am still waiting. I wish I knew how long it might take too. This whole procedure consumes your life until it is settled. I guess I'm getting worn out with it, but I am not going to quit. I am determined to do this. I haven't been able to find anyone else that has bc/bs of MIchigan.

    Still Waiting

    I have been waiting for BCBS of Michigan to respond for 4 weeks. I have called them and they don't even acknowledge getting the paperwork. I don't understand their procedure either. They told me to have my doctor's office call and inquire about the status. I guess that will be next, hopefully. I am also getting anxious. I had hoped to not go through another summer feeling so miserable. I hope you hear soon. I know the frustration.:confused2:
  5. Hi Diane, Thanks for the info. I guess I am just going to have to be patient. I am 59yrs old and 4'10" and 205lbs. I have had heart surgery and my cardiologist is having fits. On top of that, the weight is killing me. I get a little anxious because I know my heart can't take much. I had another doctor picked out but he only does the surgery at one facility and it isn't on my insurance. Again thanks for answering.
  6. I am having a meltdown. I know others have said it took them several months to get their surgery date. I have been trying for 7 months to get something done. I had to change doctors due to insurance change. That took time. I have done everything the ins. has required. Just can't get a surgery date. Not even a pre-surgery consultation. It seems that Dr. Selim has one secretary and she had an operation and has been gone. Does anyone know anything about Dr. Selim at KU Med. Center?
