Kate,

let us know what they say!

I wasn't approved but I wasn't not approved. Surgeons office called me today canceling Monday's surgery because insurance suddenly wants a letter from my psychiatrist saying he has been and will continue to treat me and has a medication plan for me.

It's just insurance dragging their heels because I've been seeing my current psychiatrist for probably 6 years and saw one for many years before that and have been 100% medication compliant the entire time so there's no reason why I wouldn't be now.

He is writing me the letter but insurance won't be able to approve me in time for Monday so surgery is pushed back at least a month because I have to wait for approval then get back on the surgeons schedule. I'm totally bummed.

I hope you get a speedy approval. So at least the lower BMI didn't come up.

For now. I'm going to call insurance tomorrow to at least see if they will say if this is the last hurtle.

Meanwhile my mom is trying to talk me into getting the balloon done instead because the sleeve is super scary to her.
