I know how you feel. I have been approved by insurance as well but the scheduler has not called yet. I think I am being obnoxious and am calling everyday, but this is life changing so I think I'm aloud to be a little obsessive.

Let me finish this...lol

I waited 2 weeks before I emailed. Was told I would hear something in a few days. Waited another week and then was told that the scheduler was out of the office for at least another week. Finally got my date on the 27th of January. It felt almost disrespectful to me that they kept putting me off. Just be honest and tell me it is going to be 4-6 weeks or whatever. I put off several things in anticipation of a January surgery date and now things are all discombobulated and with the way my pre diet is effecting my moods who knows what will get done.lol

Good luck!

Well for me I have a surgery date.of 2/19 and all I need to make sure is that I am approved before I get completely happy. Although I'm positive everything will go through. Can I call my insurance company to find out if a request has been made?

YES U Can! I did and had my doc do a doc to doc consult with the approving dr at the insurance co.... Approval in less than a week from convo

And he told my doc one thing I was missing that I took care of two days later. My doc faxed copy of proof of resolution of issue to the insurance co. Doc and I got the approval by phone two days later.....:-) good luck!

      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.
