This waiting is killing me!



Recommended Posts

My documents were submitted to insurance (Anthem BCBS of CA) last Friday. Tomorrow is 7 days. They said it could take up to 15 days. I want to call and check every hour. This is driving me nuts!!

I would call... a squeaking wheel gets taken care of soon!! LOL! They can't do more than say, "we are still working on it"

I'm glad I called, too (Anthem BCBS CalPers). It turned out some paperwork was missing and the person at the surgeon's office didn't understand that part of it was missing and just refaxed what she had already sent. Added time to the process. But I was approved 3 days after they got the missing info (I was told it was a 5 business day window they were using now but that may be because it's CalPers).

That is the WORST part! I called insurance once a day every day until they told me I was approved!

I want to call everyday. I do it every other and get a different story every time. I'll wait to call on Thursday. Congrats on getting approved!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
