    Waiting on insurance approval!

    Yay!! I know what you mean. I found out the thursday before memorial day, but had to wait till the Tuesday after to schedule mine! It was torture!! Then they could have done it on 6/17 but I wanted to wait until after my son's final lacrosse tournament this coming weekend.....so I have mine next week. Worth the wait though.....
  2. You will be fine, keep us posted! Good luck!!!

    Waiting on insurance approval!

    Mine was supposedly submitted on 3/20 and I called my Dr office every week, finally on 5/3 I called my insurance company directly and they said they had never received it....don't know where my surgeons office sent it...or IF they did on 3/20, but I jumped on them, they resubmitted it 5/3, got denial 5/16 because some forms were missing, appealed 5/17 with the missing forms (which the surgeon had but failed to send in the first time) and approved 5/20! Major point here.....follow up directly with your insurance company to be sure it was submitted and is being reviewed right away...then you magi get approved quicker than I did. My surgery is next week June 26!! Good luck to all of you!

    Sounds like sheer exhaustion and maybe some depression, but I am not a Dr....rest all that you can and I bet you will feel more like your old self in a few days!! Praying for you.

    Good to know, I don't think mine says anything about what to take for nausea.

    Yes, I started officially on Wed, but actually started replacing one meal per day a week ago Wed and have now lost 7 pounds since then! I am lucky with my pre op diet though, I have 2 Protein Shakes per day...breakfast and lunch, then a healthy meal for dinner....meaning 4-6 oz lean meat and a veggie or fruit.I fill the gaps and growls with Water and crystal light. Tonight I had a sugar free fat free popsicle after dinner though....so far so good.
