Recommended Posts

Whew! Finally approved!

My last NUT visit was 4/6. Submitted to insurance the next day. 4/11 get a letter asking for more info, basic stuff that I thought would have already been submitted like surgery date, hospital info, etc. Resubmitted by 4/15, got approval via automated system on 4/22 and finally got the call from the surgeons office today. I am scheduled for May 16th!! Yay! Let's get this party started!

I have Cigna. I had heard they approve quickly so I was a nervous wreck when it took so long to hear back from them.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
