Recommended Posts

JacobsMommy, did you ever hear anything?? I just got the call from my surgeons office that I have been APPROVED and I have a surgery date of June 18th so I guess those fools at cigna lied to me about it being denied again after peer to peer. If you get denied I would ask for a peer to peer! Best of luck to all still fighting and waiting for their surgeries to get approved..continued prayers!

OMG congratulations! It's about time! I cannot wait to hear about your progress. I called yesterday and I should know by Friday. The coordinator gave me a date for May 22nd in faith that all will be approved. I am preparing in faith. *sighs*

I've actually had a good experience with Cigna ... I used true results .... From the beginning Cigna said I had to show 4 months of consecutive monitored weightloss and then it would be covered at 100%. They submitted me to insurance on April 17th I was approved by April 25th I was very shocked especially after they told me Cigna was the worst ... I wish you the best of luck

My dr. Office turned in the paperwork to Cigna on May 14 and I had my ore-op appt at that time as well. Surgery is set for June 5th. I haven't heard from anyone since my last appt but have been out of state too. Will Cigna send me an approval letter first or do you think my dr will know first? The office said that Cigna has been good at approving within a week or two. I can't wait til tuesday to call and see if anyone knows more.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
