I just got my approval letter in the mail!!! :tongue2: After being denied in October, I lost all my hope for awhile. I gave up and starting binging again. After a week of doing this, I realized how much I need this surgery and that I'm not going to give up. I finally got all my information together and sent in my appeal at the end of November. I've been anxiously waiting for the letter and have been checking in with Wellmark Blue Cross/Blue Shield to see if there's any updates. Well I finally got my letter today!!! I should be able to have my surgery in February or March!!! I'm SOOO excited! I can't wait for 2009!! :huh2:
