Minor setback

Getting my insurance to approve lapband turned out to be the easy part. Trying to coordinate the time off with my job is a pain in the rear. Since I haven't been at this job for a year (two months short). I don't qualify for the familily medical leave act, which would allow me to take a medical leave of absence. While I'll only be out of work for a week or so the small amount of sick leave I have accumulated won't cover it and my company requires me to be on paid vacation or leave of absence if I am gone. What I've had to do is move my surger date closer to the weekend so that I am only taking two days off then two days of weekend and back to work on money. I really hope that i am able to return to work after only 4 days!?

New surgery date 27 March

I feel your pain. I work for the school district and was hoping to have everything lined up for surgery over Spring Break. No way that is happening. So it looks like I am on hold until June unless I just decide to say the devil with it and lose the money. If I can't eat, why should the rest of my family?LOL

Good luck to you!!

That's right the family should suffer too!! haha Are you waiting for insurance to come through? If so, stick with it. They'll come around.
