Lou:) 110 Posted April 4, 2013 Honestly' date=' I probably haven't been waiting very long.I started the process in mid January and had first official visit in February to the surgeon. Everything was turned in on the 14th of March, but Dr. office didn't open up a case with the insurance company until the 22nd of March. They have 15 days to deny or approve. It's like watching a pot boil....it just seems to take so much longer. I am just so ready to get a date on the calendar. I feel like everything else is on hold until I have a date..[/quote'] I had my first appointment in January and after psych clearance and seeing the nut they requested auth from the ins. I was notified of the approval in mid Feb. I was hoping for a march date, but the earliest open slot for the surgery was 4/8. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MaryMitchell 23 Posted April 4, 2013 Good luck to all new surgeries today and good headings thoughts for all of the new people sitting on the losers bench! Surgery in 5 days!! Had pre-op yesterday. All is good and I lost 12lbs on my liquid diet over the past 2 weeks! It is VERY manageable and when you keep looking forward to what our goals are, it makes it easier. It is also a great help seeing everyone else that is on the same journey. Stay strong and keep strong. WE can do it! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
