VSG AJH 499 Posted October 14, 2013 My name is Amanda. I'm gearing up for a November sleeve. After an appointment on Saturday, the NUT said she'd have the insurance coordinator begin preparing my packet, then she would attach her final notes after my appointment on November 5 so everything could be submitted to insurance same day. My BMI was 41.1 at the initial surgical consult, and it's been hovering at 40 and change since, so I'm hoping Cigna will give me a quick approval. Following that appointment, she's given me the green light to work on losing so that she can make the case with the surgeon to shorten my pre-op diet from two weeks to one week. If things go as she's indicating they might, I believe I'll be sleeved before the end of November, Just so ready to get this show on the road!! 1 soonerorlater reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
