Congratulations. I have verbal approval also but have not received the written approval letter. It should be here any day since it was mailed on September 18th. My doctor's office does not schedule your surgery until they receive the written letter to make sure the surgery codes are correct on the letter providing proof the ins. co. approved you for the correct surgery. I know I will have an October date, but right now do not know the exact date. When I spoke to my doctor's office on 9/24, I was told they are now scheduling surgeries for the second week of October.

Hope you get your date soon.

Congrats to OP on your approval! I got mine yesterday!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
