Yeah, waiting for the insurance approval can be a killer. It took a little over 2 weeks for my approval. After 1 week I called to check on the status. My case manager told me that I could call everyday if it made me feel better, but that she would call me as soon as a decision was made. Well, she never should have told me that because I did call everyday. Finally, about a week later, my phone range about 8 am in the morning. It was the nurse from my insurance company calling to tell me that I had been approved. She said that she wanted to surprise me and call me before I called her lol.

I think waiting for the approval is the worst !!! Everything rides on their answer. I was luck... my surgeon submitted everything on Monday and I was approved on Thursday, we also had all our ducks in a row and there was no way they were not going to approve!.

      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.
