arks 0 Posted January 7, 2011 I got the call today, I was APPROVED! after all these months, after doing one thing after the other, after hanging in there without losing hope, my surgery date is going to be on Wednesday, January 12th! I am excited and scared, it's like reality finally hit me. I was rushing through the seminar and surgeon visits, then the 3 months diet, then all the exams, getting everything ready for Tricare, getting the clearance from my PCP, then the paperwork sent to insurance (2 nerve wrecking days!) then the call... Now it's just 5days on a liquid diet and I'm done. I'm getting banded... I really don't know if I should laugh or cry, I definitely feel like doing both!
