Add my name to the APPROVED list :)

I was getting worried since my surgery is in a week and a half (Nov 19) and my doc's office had just sent in my paperwork to Aetna last week...

I got the call this afternoon that I have been approved :confused: I seriously thought I was going to have to fight and appeal and fight some more and not have surgery until next year.

I told the nurse that I'm a little offended that they approved me so fast - since it technically means that I'm SO fat that they had no excuse or "loophole" that would allow them to reject me

I'm excited and nervous about the surgery

:clap2:Well let me be the first to say congratulations!:clap2: I have to ask how did you get them to approve. I have Aetna as well. I have a weight history from 02,03,05,06,07, and will have one for 08. But I am missing 04. Do you think this will be a problem with them? Did you have five years in a row showing you were over weight? I can go back further but I don't have five full years in a row like that. Please let me know. I to need this surgery bad and don't want to have to wait until 09!
