oh no i just remembered that i will be out of town. Naomi said that it wasn't required of my ins. co. but for the dr. what is your experience with this. Is it true that they won't do my surgery until i attend?

[JASON R 0]

i know that dr miles does want you to attend one. you have to attend one. sorry.

I'm such a dum dum and Jason u r awesome for replying to my ever growing list of questions. I will be in town that weekend afterall! Besides, I'm such an information junkie that I need to attend every meeting! :sidebar: I am worried sick about this approval process. I have the BMI but no comormidities. What about u? Is naomi really good at sending info to ins co so that it gets approved?

hmmm maybe I could use that as a thread starter.

They most definitely WILL NOT do your surgery if you haven't been to a support group meeting or a nutritional class.

[aprilapple 1]

nutritional class? no one in the surgeons office mentioned that. I feel like i am building the wings as i fly throughout this whole process....

I talked to Naomi this morning and she said that I will have to do the nutrition class once I am approved. She made me feel better about the approval process. So now I am just waiting...
