after being told I was denied almost 2 weeks ago because the insurance company had 2 very important pieces of my files that didnt go through the fax, sometimes when you fax more then 2 pieces of paper which i am sure there were at least 30 sheets to fax, the one about my TSH (thyroid test) and my support letter from my doctor didnt go through. so they denied me.

well after much pushing on my part with the insurance and the clinic and all the paper work summited. and then having a Peer to peer doctor to doctor (insurance doctor and the surgeon)

I WAS APPROVED YESTERDAY!!!!

I am so so happy, and now a bundle of nerves and scared to death.

please add me to the prayer list.

thank you for the encoragment :rolleyes:

Great!! Congrats!! I was so worried that mine wouldn't approve it and was totally amazed when I was approved the same day that my surgeon submitted! Mine had to be submitted verbally on the phone.

Awesome.....I am glad you did not accept the "no" answser and dug deeper. Just because they say NO I want to know why and all the detail. We are all humans and make errors AND the insurance company goofs up more than not - so for all you people that have been declined don't accept it until you fought to the bitter end!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
