I'm IMPATIENTLY waiting.....

I have FINALLY been to the surgeon's office. I will meet the surgeon on July 31. They say that they want me to have an EGD with CLOTC done first since I have GERD. Their office requires a 6 month diet and you have to have 4 of their forms filled out before you can schedule at their office. So they are telling me that I can get the last one 2 weeks after the first and they will allow it. Then they say that the authorization will take up to 6 weeks to get from my insurance. Why does it seem to be hurry up and wait with this? Anyone else feel that way?

I hate this waiting as well. My last 6 mth appt is in September. I wish they didn't make jump through hoops like this. Doctor states surgery should be October. Cannot wait. I'm jealous of people posting july surgery dates

I know what you mean! They hurried to get all the preop done and now I have to wait roughly a little over two months. :/

I know what you mean. I'm so excited that I can hardly stand myself. If it were yesterday it would still not be soon enough.
