Oh I'm sorry. I couldn't imagine that.

I,m sooo , sooo, I just don't know....NUMB, SHOCKED, DEPRESSED, BROKEN HEARTED.....

:::::: I was denied today.....Now I have to wait and see whats to happen next. All this time I was told everything was in. my MD sent everything in but, I find out today the letter of recommendation wasnt sent in. A personal recommendation. Really? I thought that was what the Dr's letter was for and I know she sent one. I'm sooo tired of being in pain. I just want to be able to get out and walk and enjoy the Fall colors and to BE HEALTHY AGAIN......

@@Blueeyes66 I'm so sorry sweetie! Hopefully if it was just over a letter of recommendation, your doctor should be able to send one and get it righted pretty easy. I know the feeling though. I am so over the pain and suffering and trying to work so hard and getting no where while I wait patiently. I've done everything they asked and then some and I feel like they let me down by not even sending my packet and no one has called me back to find out why so I'm going to have to wait and try tomorrow when I know they are in to find out why it hasn't been sent. It makes no sense to me at all! Don't they understand how badly we need this?!?

[lsmith715 55]

I'm so sorry. That's my biggest fear. Hopefully they will get the paperwork sent that needed and you will get the approval by the end of the week. Head up and keep going in the right direction while you wait for the approval.

Sajijoma....I can't understand why they want all theses tests run make us pay all that money just to turn us down.

I called Cigna tonight to see if my MD sent the letter in and found out it wasn't a letter they said was missing

it was the 3 month physician assisted diet. And I know for a fact that was in the stack of papers the surgeons assistant sent in. I SAW IT......I feel like they know we need it and try to do anything to discourage us. It is just unreal.

I'm still waiting. I called today and found out that my packet wasn't submitted last.Monday like I thought. It was just faxed in today. Doesn't anyone follow up with things anymore? I'm dying here waiting.

OMG this is exactly what happened to me except mine won't be submitted til next week, because my surgeon is out of town and he didn't write the recommendation for surgery letter before he left, so it has to wait til he comes back. I have to say, I'm oddly calm now knowing that it'll be next week at the earliest before I hear anything. I still want to get the show on the road and everything, but it's like I'm oddly at peace with waiting another week. I always have this belief that things happen for a reason and whatever the reason gives me more time to work on myself and make sure I'm where I want to be mentally going into things. Of course at this rate, I'll be having surgery in November, but that's ok because October is a sad month for me since that's when I lost my special brother, and considering how he died, it would be more stressful to me I think so I guess it's all for a good reason. *sigh* Good luck! Hopefully you'll get your approval fast! ❤️

@@Sajijoma Any news?!?!?

[Sajijoma 1,324]

I just called and it's just "pending". I'm planning to call and check every day til I hear something, but it was just turned in late on Friday finally so wait is the name of the game. I cannot imagine it not being approved though with my high BMI and long medical history of obesity and stuff. It's just waiting for the rubber stamp people to stamp it that is annoying!

[GossipGirlxoxo 10]

Mine was turned in Monday the 19th I've been anxious to hear I have anthem.... I can't wait to not be sore either !

[Sajijoma 1,324]

Still pending this morning! Ugh! I'm

Going to try to spend the day not thinking about it and see if it goes faster like it did with getting it submitted! Apparently a watched pot never boils!

[Sajijoma 1,324]
