Bad credit and waiting for a loan



Recommended Posts

My husband and I's credit is not very good but we applied for a medical loan anyways to cover what my insurance can't or won't cover. I'm so nervous about hearing back from the loan company. I'm afraid that if this doesn't pan out it'll be my last chance at getting my surgery. I know its out of my hands right now but it doesn't make me any less nervous. Anyone out there with less than great credit get a medical loan?

Carecredit used to be pretty lenient a few years back. I'm not sure how strict their credit standards are now, though. There is another site called creditboards.com where you may be able to determine if people were approved for carecredit and what their credit score was for approval.

Good luck!

@@lexiemustang I looked up care credit and my doctor doesn't approve it. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Well my loan got denied. I'm not really sure what to do now. All I know is I have to save money as fast as I can.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
