Have I Ever Mentioned.....



Recommended Posts

That I'm not the most patient person? Finished my 6 months on Monday and it was submitted to insurance. I just want to call them, specifically asking to speak to the doctor reviewing my file and say, "What is WRONG WITH YOU? Do you not have any idea how anxious I am about this???" :).

I completely understand. BUT- I really would argue this is worst part of the whole journey for me :(

Did you really? Who did u ask for and what did u say? Just wondering what the status is maybe? Realistically it's not going to speed it up. It like you said- maybe ill feel better. Thank u

I tried to call a lot but they started getting annoyed at me (I can't really blame them!) but it did get my file moved through quicker. If I hadn't called to check up on it quite a bit it would not have gotten done in time to have surgery before my insurance changed. I called whoever was supposed to be handling it at the moment, be that the insurance coordinator, the scheduler, the medical assistant. They kept me pretty up to date on what was going on with my file most of the time.

Wait until that whole month of no solid food after surgery. This will be the second worst part of the journey. lol

Would you believe I actually look forward to that??

Thank you- I try. Although I did cave and calls insurance. Nothing yet. They haven't received the fax from the doc yet. Well they probabaly have but they have 72 hours from the time they grab it from the fax to enter it in the computer. Nothing is in the computer and nothing will be reviewed until it is. **BIG sigh**

I hope so but not holding my breath (or am I?). My doc's office sent it. It's the Insurance company that is what makes me wait. Don't like it.

Insurance companies are so slowwww. I have had to call them just about every other day to get them to fix the billing for my surgery. Each time they tell me 30 days before they will know the copay and stuff. Then the next day I get another bill that isn't billed right. It's like deja vu =p drives me nuts!

I've got my fingers crossed that tomorrow is your day =)

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
