Gettin' antsy

So on June 9th i got the approval from my insurance for my surgery! HOORAY!! A couple days later, I got my letter in the mail and I took it over to the doctors office, she told me the scheduler will be in touch with me to set up my surgery date and the last of the pre-surgery testing. That was almost 3 weeks ago. Ive called several times inquiring as to what the hold up is, but they keep telling me they have to coordinate the testing to be done on the same morning. I get that, I guess. But at the same time, the waiting is KILLING me. Im ready to move on from all of this. Im ready to be on the losers bench. Im ready to start living the new me. I try to focus on whats going on now, keeping busy, making sure ive got everything organized and arranged for when surgery does roll around and most importantly, im keeping a watchful eye on my diet and exercise. This process has been a year in the making as of this month. Its been a difficult rollercoaster for sure.

"Good things come to those who wait" seems like my never ending mantra lately.

Is this a normal length of time to wait to get surgery scheduled after approval? Or am i just that impatient? lol

I got really lucky with my drs office they worked with me from day 1 I told them my son is military & he will be taking care of me after surgery & he deploys this summer so they scheduled everything around my son's leave, that is also I think why I am not 1 bit nervous about anything cuz I know I am in great hands they call & check up on u all the time & make sure u know exactly where u stand with insurance appoval they told me 2 weeks it only took 2 days ????

Blessed on this discussion

Hope u get ur surgery date soon
