Melsyboo 43 Posted November 8, 2016 Second surgeon consult and my insurance rules changed! Lucky me now I have to wait 3 more months. She said she will try and submit it now and see what happens, but most likely I'm looking at Feb/March Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OzRoo 1,492 Posted November 8, 2016 Oh, this must be disappointing and frustrating. I had to wait 9 months for my surgery. Instead of being sleeved last July 2015, I finally got sleeved March 2016. My Surgeon's Endo found out I had Graves Disease (hyper-thyroid), and that had to be addressed first. It took 9 months of thyroid treatments for it to be stabilised enough for this surgery. Funny enough, the waiting time went really fast for me. Hope yours goes quickly too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aggiemae 739 Posted November 8, 2016 I figure I was fat for 10 years going up and down... other that wanting what I want when I want it... really, what difference would 6months make. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Melsyboo 43 Posted November 8, 2016 Well these 3 months flew by, so hopefully the next 3 do! I had all my appointments though so that may be why the past 3 months seemed busy. Now I just have the NUT appt each month. Oh well! Everything happens for a reason. My time will come! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Goin told me they was goin to stop taking my insurance on the first of the year so I had to find some place else and start all over.
