krissj 39 Posted February 15, 2013 Hi All, I am so excited I can hardly breath. My surgery was previously set for April 16th. Today I was informed I have been approved by insurance and date bumped up to March 7th. I start the liquid diet in six days. I am just beside myself. I seriously didn't expect to be approved. Don't ask me why...guess it is just my luck, but today when I got the call, I started crying. I have wanted this for so long and I did everything I was told. I would love it if there are any other March 7th sleevers that would like a support companion as we go through this journey together. Good luck to us all. Major hugs of excitement.

oklafarmgal 31 Posted February 15, 2013 I know the excitement that you are feeling. I called my insurance yesterday evening and was told that I was approved. But, this morning, I had to call back and just make sure. Lol.....I started my preop diet before I was approved because my surgeon had an earlier opening. My surgery will be this next Thursday, the 21st. I am really anxious. Good luck to you and congratulations!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

oklafarmgal 31 Posted February 15, 2013 Well thank you very much! I will be sure to post how it all went. It just kind of seems unreal right now. I had planned to go to Mexico if my insurance didn't approve it. I really feel a sense of relief knowing I get to stay here close to home. Where are you located krissj?

I am going to MX and having mine 3/7!! I decided not to fight with the insurance company and try a peer to peer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
