Insurance approval and finalizing surgery date! Yay!

[lookingahead 7]

Finally got insurance approval after what seemed to be forever, in reality it was only 2 weeks. Finalizing the surgery date with the Dr's office today, and then I can officially be on my way to the next chapter of my life.

This site has been super helpful in getting answers to those silly questions and keeps me from calling the Dr's office every day when I think of a question, since I know I can find the answer on the talk forum. Thank you to everyone for your sharing...

Looking forward to what the future holds!

Congrats!!!!! For me waiting for the approval was the most difficult part of the journey... I was a ball of nerves the entire time. I bet you can't wait to get your date

I agree that this site is amazing! I spent hours and hours reading through old posts and I hardly ever had questions for my surgeon.
