I just finished my last dietician appointment today, so hopefully I'll hear good news soon! I'm hoping for an October date, but realistically my RNY will be in early November. :-)

I will complete everything the first week of November, I had to do 6 mo with a nutritionist. I am hoping and praying I can have the surgery in November.

Wow 6 months with nutritionist, that is incredible!!!! especially with all the info you can obtain. I get 1 visit with mine. But, with my insurance....I allowed 3 visits per year every year if I choose. Most people don't take advantage of it.

It went well. All my questions were answered. Everything on my checklist has been completed, and my insurance requirements are pretty low (basically, the surgeon just has to say I need surgery) so I don't expect approval to take long. :-)

@@asnapril, I had to complete a 6 months supervision as well. At first I was upset but I'm getting what I need to be successful after surgery. My last visit with nutritionist is the first week on November so I'm hoping for surgery at the end of November or the first of December. I'm excited and nervous at the same time cause November will be here soon.

Hello, I am in Chicago and I just got my November date this morning! November 2nd is my date! I got approved this week for surgery. I am waiting to get a call from central scheduling at the hospital regarding my X-ray , EKG, and blood work. I am excited but very nervous

Once I complete my NUT and psych evaluation, then I will have my blood work usually schedule up to 1 week before. I am not sure he will do an EKG, since I recently had an echo done. I do need to get my Vitamin D levels re drawn this month because I was critically low and have been taking 4000 units supplemental for a while now.

@@ebezi7908 when did you submit to the insurance and why in November? Is this the month you wanted or is your doctor scheduled out that far

[ebezi7908 30]

The surgeon is scheduled out that far, I have an HMO( BCBS) and my primary dr submitted the paperwork last week.

[Ivette 11]

That's good to know. I'm hoping to submit 1st week in November and I hope for surgery at the end of November no later than first week of December.
