I'm APPROVED!! Thanks Walt & Kelley!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

I can't believe it - I was supposed to have a telephone hearing with my insurance company (BCBSMN) and Walt & Kelley Lindstrom of Obesity Law this morning and Walt called me a few minutes ago and said the hearing had been cancelled because I was APPROVED!!! :whoo::clap2::faint::whoo::clap2::Banane35::D:D:D. I have been working on this whole process since February and now it is finally going to happen. I have a call into my surgeons office and hope to get a date very soon.

Walt and Kelley were just AWESOME to work with. If you are having problems getting approved, definitely see if you can get their help. I am still in total shock - I am SOOOOOOOOO ready!!! (can you sense my excitement!!!!!)

Robin :whoo:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
