GBFree82 75 Posted June 28, 2013 So, I'm approved and all my pre testing evals are done. Now I'm just waiting on the final appointment with the surgeon and a surgery date. From what I understand it could be another two weeks. Fun times. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adargie 159 Posted June 28, 2013 I have my own waiting game too, mine with waiting for ins approval, also 2 weeks, sigh...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lorie269 392 Posted June 28, 2013 My waiting game is the next four weeks until surgery. Hopefully, it will go as fast as the last 6 months has. Good luck to both of you! 1 vicki s reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chele H 427 Posted June 28, 2013 I waited FOUR long weeks for insurance approval...had myself convinced I was being denied. Finally approved after several calls from my coordinator to Aetna, surgery on 7/22.....trying to keep myself busy and not think about it constantly. Easier said than done. Good luck!

awifeinmichigan 233 Posted June 28, 2013 My waiting game is over 2 months until surgery. Patience is not one of my virtues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GBFree82 75 Posted June 28, 2013 I'm kinda on the fast track though since I'm self pay, no waiting on insurance to go through and no hoops to jump through. It took us 5years to save up for this and it feels so close and so far away at the same time. Best of luck to everyone! 1 MCM13 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
