sunshinetinks 258 Posted October 31, 2017 Nov 1! Wow! So close, makes this real, doesn't it? How are you doing? I imagine I will be an emotional basket case when I am that close!! I am really shaking today, my nerves. I know this is the right decision. Just scared of the pain afterwards. I hope it's controlled.Sent from my Nexus 5 using BariatricPal mobile app 2 ClbsMm2000 and FL*Girl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Luisajfc 402 Posted October 31, 2017 ROFLMAO about the train, the shoes, or being nekkidy! LOL! So, don't spaz over the psych eval. It was sooooo easy peasy...mainly just a test with 400 questions. Then you sit and chat for about 30-45 minutes. He'll talk about why you want the surgery, how you think it will help. He's trying to see if you're a psychopath, have hidden personality disorders, if you are withit and right with the world...lol. If you have depression, eating disorders, alcohol or drug probs, that sort of thing, I think it would be trickier and worth a little anxiety. But otherwise, you'll do great! ((hugs)) and so excited for you!Sorry [emoji20] I saw this maaaaa late. But I didn’t get it like you ... all I had was the chat and that’s it. [emoji848] better that way I guess, just now my new headache is .. when to call the insurance to see if it was submitted and not sound so desperate. Lol “There will be obstacles.

ClbsMm2000 95 Posted October 31, 2017 Congrats to those having surgery tomorrow. Praying for you all. I'm one week away and my nerves are already stretched thin. But I know this is the path I need to follow. And hey, I've lost 8 1/2 lbs already on my liver shrink diet. Mine isn't all liquids. But still rough! lol@FluffyChix Happy Halloween! 4 sunshinetinks, FL*Girl, FluffyChix and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This was me yesterday. I "think" they submitted some time around the 24th, and so I was searching the boards and Google to see what the usual turn around time would be--I don't want to call and red-flag me at the insurance! Knuckle biter for sure! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Knuckle biter for sure!Totally in the same boat. Mine was supposed to be submitted last week. My office said to lay off and not follow-up with insurance and that they typically hear back within two weeks. I’m struggling not to call though and to make sure everything was received. 1 FluffyChix reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
