This wait is killing me!



Recommended Posts

The Dr's office submitted to insurance 7/3, but because of the 4th, they didn't actually "receive" it until Friday 7/5. They require 5 business days. So, hopefully I will have an answer today! I'm going to call again this afternoon. I've been pestering the insurance company to death! Making sure they had what they needed and when I should expect an answer. I will be soo disapointed if I'm denied. But the nurse said she would be extrememly surprised if I was. She said everything she sent met their criteria for surgery. FINGERS CROSSED!!!

The waiting is murder, first the wait for auth, then the wait for surgery... I filed my time reading everything I could about weight loss surgery, studying all the guidelines, going to support groups.

      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.
