anyone with a march date?

[LulupaloozaLL 8]

Honestly, I don't know what happened, but I got a call this afternoon that they reversed it and I'm back on. The insurance coordinator at the center I go to has told me all along I was good to go. I don't know if she just thought that, or if she got verbal approval, or what. But I called first thing this morning and left messages with both the coordinator and the BCBS contact from my letter. Then nothing. No response. So this afternoon, the insurance coordinator called me and said she'd been on the phone several times with them and they asked for a 'peer call' with my doctor. She said they reversed their decision and I can go ahead with the surgery in the morning. Better believe I called them and got an approval confirmation number!

I'm so confused about it all. It's been an emotional roller coaster. It's a good thing I was so upset all day...I couldn't eat anything. Now I can't sleep. I guess that must be normal even without all the craziness. I wonder if they do this last-minute stuff often. Sure hope not. It's horrible.

Unless they call me in the middle of the night with another reversal, I'll be up at 2:00 so I can leave at 3:00 for the 90-minute trek to Daytona beach. I need to be there by 5:00 for surgery at 7:30.

Wow! Can't believe it's going to happen!

Sending you warm wishes for no further complications. I'm on Thursday. I've had a cold over the weekend and was afraid I'd be rescheduled. It's a roller coaster for sure. Good luck to you! Report back when you can!

I am five months post op from the sleeve and down over 100 pounds since day of surgery. Due to complications with my new pouch, I am going in for revision surgery to partial bypass on Tuesday March 18th. So I guess I'm an October and a March surgery

What kind of complication did you have? (If you don't mind me asking).

Because I lost so much weight so rapidly I got the 0.02 % of getting my insides twisted, literally twisted and kinked. :/ Keeping a positive attitude though and I have NO REGRETS what so ever! Best decision I ever made! Granted I wasn't expect to have the surgery and give month post op needs to go in for revision, the journey was well worth it. Wishing everyone the best of luck and quick recoveries!!

March 20th! I'm nervous and excited! Just want to be post-op.

So close! Less then a week away! Wishing you the best!
