Omg. They said they are calling me back with an appt

The coordinator said the dr requires 200 hours before scheduling. My question is y not schedule it a month out like they were going to and have me do the hours between now and the surgery date.

Now another thing... I can't take this omg. First it's you need one last blood test. Then one more blood test. Now they want 200 hours on the Cpap machine. Seriously.... Can you say frustrating?

Last test result submitted, finally. I get my date tomorrow... I hope

No one told me while I was going through insurance hell that I needed a sleep study. Luckily they had a cancelation and I'm getting it tomorrow. It's driving me crazy to be so close and yet so far.

Am I missing something... After the approval is it just a matter of waiting for a date?

I had double coverage with bc bs. One of them rejected me outright no appeal the other I just got approved through by submitting a ridiculous amount of paper work. What I learned was its not always the insurance co. Sometimes it's your employer. Check your company's plan and see what is excluded.

You look wonderful. I can't wait.

Thank you for the well wishes. I can't believe that soon I will be able to run across the lacrosse field with my girls and not feel like I need to call an ambulance. And Disney Omg I can't wait until I'm not reading that sign that says what the weight limit is on the rides. I have been doing that forever.

I'm having it done at barix in pa. Were you nervous at all before your surgery?

Wow so soon. Thanks

Hi all, New member happy to join. I just received insurance approval today. I'm so nervous. What is going to happen now? I have been thinking about it nonstop since the call... Omg. Am I ready to be a different person physically. It's odd. I spent 36 years hiding behind this extra weight. Now it's like everyone's going to see me. I know I'm ranting... Is it odd that the first thing to pop into my head after the call was "hey I finally got some big girl thigh high boots, what am I going to do with them?" I guess I should be asking real questions. How long from approval to surgery? Thanks for letting me rant. Jojo
