AllthingsApple 34 Posted July 10, 2015 UPDATE: I got approved!!!! Cigna actually called me????. An RN just wanted to know if I had any questions or concerns prior to my surgery next week... yes, she said next week????. I was stunned because I didn't know I was approved much less scheduled. But I followed up with my Dr's office and they said they have to put in a "dummy date" for the submission but I'll get my actual date after my results visit where they officially review with me the findings of each test I was required to take as well as review any pre-surgical diet requirements. So, that appointment is Monday July 20th and I'm hoping to have surgery a couple of weeks after that if the surgeon's schedule allows. I'm so freaking excited! Thank you so much to everyone for their support and encouragement. I'm grateful that this resource exists☺️. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AllthingsApple 34 Posted August 18, 2015 Sorry guys, long time no post????. Well, I'm going in for surgery tomorrow morning at 5:30AM with surgery scheduled for 7:30AM (5 hours away!!!). I'm actually going to have the SIPS procedure done which is like a bypass below a sleeve. I'm excited and not nervous at all but I'm expecting it to hit me when I get there. Please keep me in your prayers. Thanks to everyone for the awesome support!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
