Nervous but ready, any addtional advice or words of encouragement would definately be appreciated......Thanks everyone

    new and need advise

    I would contact my insurance and make sure it is covered and what the requirements are. Definitely research and find a surgeon because he may have different requirements as well. The surgeon usually knows what the insurance requirements....congrats on your decision and good luck on your journey :-)
  15. Thanks :-). When I called on Tuesday to mke sure they had anything, they said yeah, but they won't call me back to about next week, so I'm about to call them to hold a date!!!

    How long does it take ?

    it honestly depends on your insurance requirements and how quick you want the procedure done. Although my insurance didn't require the 6 month diet, I had a list of test and doctors to see.....I took a week off of work and finished my requirements in 2 months. Now awaiting for the doctor office to submit to my inusrance
  22. Hey, just wanted to know how long after you completed your requirements and Dr. Giess had everything for you to get a date.....as of yesterday, they have everything off the list they required. Thanks a bunch

    Annoyed

    I'm pissed right now....I've done everything my insurance and surgeon asks, they have everything except my clearance from the psy which I saw 8/15.....I called her last week, she said she would it over the weekend and she didn't it....annoying
