Margaret 4 Posted March 1, 2011 Now to see how long it will take to get a surgery date and really get this journey on its way! I hope I'm going to be able to do this in March. I will say the 6 months went by fairly quickly, all things considered. It's probably good to have a waiting period to become more informed about the entire procedure.

StacyS 20 Posted March 2, 2011 Yay!!! I will be done with my 3 month in april and even if it's going slow its going kinda fast. I agree that it is actually good to have waited.

Douceur72 3 Posted March 2, 2011 that is great! I am so jealous - still 3 months of preop to go! Although you're right, the waiting period is a great opportunity to learn everything you can. Good luck, hope you're date comes quick. Now to see how long it will take to get a surgery date and really get this journey on its way! I hope I'm going to be able to do this in March.

InProgress 3 Posted March 3, 2011 Congratulations! I just had my 2nd (of 6) appointments Monday and have my 1st actual appointment with the surgeon Friday. On the one hand I'm so eager to get this going, on the other hand, I agree that the wait has given me time to prepare. Waiting for approval will hinge mainly on your insurance but if your surgeon's office has good insurance staff it will definitely help. Talk to them to make sure everything is in order. Depending on your surgeon's patient load, March might very well work for you! Keep us posted and again, congrats & good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
