Newby with Cigna!

[1missy1 0]

Hi everyone, I've completed my nut eval and my 3 months with my pcp. My BMI is 40 and I don't have any of the other illnesses to go with it. I have my psych eval next week. I'm so afraid of being denied. Please help, any advice? Is there anyone out there that has Cigna that got approved with no high blood pressure, sleep apnea etc?

I'm in the same boat but my BMI is only 36. Heard someone was like me and had high cholesterol and got approved. Plan to have that checked. With your 40 BMI surely you will.

I sure hope so, I will let you know how it goes. My goal is to lose weight and get healthy before I get these bad things. Just about all of these illnesses run in my family so its bound to happen to me too if I don't fix the problem now. I think the high cholesterol should make u a good candidate for the surgery too. Keep us updated

Approved last Friday!!! How long should it take to get a actually surgery date? It's been a week and the office hasn't called me to schedule it yet. I've called and left messages but no response yet, maybe I'm too anxious.
