Debbiebydesign 93 Posted December 7, 2012 My surgery date is January 7th. I'm sooo freaking excited. Been going for it since February I was shooting for January 7th because it is my birthday and would seem perfect, but oddly enough I got Feb 7th. I don't belong on this board, but congrats and best wishes to those getting surgery this month and next! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frogjlr 57 Posted December 7, 2012 What should I do. My husband and I both are wanting to do the surgery. Well I was approved and surgery is Jan 7. Well my husbands doc has not faxed the last paper to insurance coordinator yet. And now they want to do a physical and lab work again before they FAX it. So now he's discouraged and says I can't have my surgery if we can't do it near the same time. I was soooo excited and now I'm mad and sad. What do I do. I will not NOT have the surgery, but then my husband will be upset. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Everything about this journey is stressful and then having to deal with this is just too much. You need to keep your surgery and move forward with your plan. Remind your husband that you are in this TOGETHER and you need to support each other. At this point, no one is telling your husband he can't have the surgery, they are just asking for blood work and another physical. That is easy and should not cause a huge delay. He should still be able to have his surgery in January if he get those appointments in this month. Good luck to you and keep your chin up!!!!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
