Paperwork Submitted to BCBS IL TOMORROW!!!

Hi all, it has been a while since i last posted but here goes... Since my last post, i have been trying to sleep with my CPAP machine - I hate this device, i feel like i am gasping for air each time i use it.. now this $2300 machine is collecting dust sitting on my nightstand. i have to take the card out and take it to the sleep people for monitoring next week- i am sure they are not going to be pleased with my non progression. Any way, i weighed in for the 4th time last week. i was down a total of 6lbs. I went in thinking oh well i have to do this only two more times and it will be over.... then the nurse at the surgery center said she had good news!:lol: The first piece of good news was that BCBS was lowering their standards and you only had to do the diet for 3 months instead of 6! :smilielol5: so with that being said, she said "you are in month 4 and i have your psyche evaluation" -which i passed - so i think you have met all of BCBS IL's requirements - i am submitting your paperwork for approval on 07/30 - WOOO HOOO!!!!! That is 2 months sooner than expected!!!:hurray: NOW I WAIT!
