Crkrjax76 76 Posted June 13, 2013 Wow I just love having to do the Dr.'s work and the insurance's work for them!!! I called the Dr to see if they had submitted my paperwork to insurance, and come to find out they wanted me to see the psych one more time...nice of them to tell me...then I had to call the insurance company because the two times I saw the psych they denied as out of network....but guess what...she is...so they are having to resubmit the claim...I just need to have this over with!!!!! Also on a side note, was extremely embarrassed today! Went to give blood and found out I'm too fat. MY HUSBAND WORKS FOR THE RED CROSS!!! I flipped out on him!! Why didn't he tell me the weight limit???? He could have saved me a whole lot of embarrasment!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crkrjax76 76 Posted June 14, 2013 I just called and I can't get back into the pysch until July 1. I was hoping to actually have my surgery that week. I'm just so freaking dissapointed!!! I don't understand why they want me to see her again, when she cleared me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Anniesmom12 181 Posted June 14, 2013 They told me today that the weight limit was 350 lbs. I couldn't smack him, we were at church!! Wow, guess I slid by (without lying about my weight none the less) when I weighed at least 375... Guess the were happy to get my blood! They sure call me once a week now for it! I think I'd have taken the black mark and gave my hubby a good bop in the nose....even if at church! LOL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So perhaps that was the problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
