wishes 125 Posted August 4, 2011 Well, every cloud has a silver lining. At least you have the approval in hand! Good luck on getting a date for the removal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted August 4, 2011 Yes, my biggest problem is that my husband has some serious issues going on right now... so it is hard to committ to when I can take on the necessary changes brought on by being sleeved. I also have some big work deadlines coming up in the fall... so just working out the logistics is a challenge. I NEED to do this, my weight is such a major issue for me (arthritis pain the biggest concern)... but i have to think of my family and work committments too.

Charlene K 1 Posted August 5, 2011 I am still trying to get scheduled on the band removal, but i just got word my insurance approved the sleeve! woo hoo! Congrats! on the approval. I have an appt with the doctor on the 11th. His office called yesterday and said he wanted to go over the surgery with me. I just hope he isn't going to tell me no. I will call the insurance company tomorrow to see if they sent my paperwork for approval. Like you I want to get this show on the road! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
