Ruthie1974 34 Posted February 24, 2010 Yeah, I have been working on this since November. Glad to finally have a date. I had to change it to the 24th (Wednesday) because of prior commitments but two days difference is not much when one has waited (weighted ha) this long.:wink: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
montynic 1 Posted February 24, 2010 Congrats! I got my approval in the mail today as well. I wish my surgery was as soon as yours... my doctor is scheduled 6-8 weeks out, and she only does this surgery on the first and third Thursday of every month. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wendyst 0 Posted February 26, 2010 Congratulations on your surgery date! This does seem like a long process, but maybe we're all just anxious to have the surgery and start shedding the pounds. :eek: I started the process back in November. I've been approved by my insurance, but waiting on the surgery date, which I hope to find out next week. Kudos to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
