  1. Congrats on getting your date. I remember the feeling I got when I found out I had been approved by the insurance company and again when my doctor's office called to schedule a date. If you can't find the diet on their website, call your doctor's office and ask them for the url . I would ask them to send an email with to avoid any guessing on how things are spelled. You can't help it if they called you today and that is not the full two weeks. Try to follow the pre- and post-op diet to the letter to mitigate chances of complications. Good luck with your upcoming surgery.

    Thank you I'm really excited, I thought I was going to be nervous but not yet. Thank you I actually found the pre op diet, messing with there website.


  2. THANK YOU ALL for your responses. I agree with you all. I received a call today from the insurance at the doctors office and was told they just heard from my insurance with a ok and I should be hearing soon from someone there to set my date. YAY!!! If I don't hear from them by today I will be calling Wednesday I want it done before the year is over with.


  3. I need it a co morbid issue since my BMI is at 47 not. 50. I got tested for sleep apnea, it showed I do have sleep apnea they sent me again Nov 12 yes I have it. They said I need it the c pap machine to "back me up" with the insurance well up to now I'm still waiting on the doctors office to call me with the c pap information. I called last Tuesday I was told I would get a call back and NOTHING I called today and the office manger told me she had sent everything to my insurance she was going to check my file if there is something there she would call me back if there isn't then she wasn't going to call me back. Well I took matters into my own hands I called my insurance to see if it had been submitted. They told me I have followed everything and I should be ready to go the only thing there waiting for is for a date that's the only way they could approve me. So I don't know why my doctors office isn't telling me that. I have followed everything on my list I started this in march. I have met my deductible already so I'm praying I get the sleeve this month. Sorry I had to vent!! Should I call my doctors office and let them know I talked to my insurance? There not too friendly but the doctor is awesome. I'm so confused and don't know what to do.
