:( This is my third try at this. First time the Doctors notes were wrong after I had done the 6 month required by Medicaid. Then I did the process again and then 3 day before my first doctors appointment I was called to say Medicaid does not pay for this kind od surgery anymore and it comes up for review in another year. Then I had a pulmonary embolism (PE) so two years later here I go again and I was approved. I am on opti-fast now and I have to have a IVC ( inferior vena cava filter ) 3/11/13 . So the big day is 3/21/13.( Sorry I don't know how to type or set up a letter) :wub: I finally got surgery Thursday and am going home today :rolleyes:
