Anyone on here going to any Drs in Ashland, Ky? I see Dr Tompkins and my last nutritional visit in September 9th.

I have BCBS of Ky thru my husband employer AK Steel. My Dr office filed this morning with INS for final approval and by 10:30 I had a call from my Drs office. That's quick! Pre op appt next Thursday

Finally getting to closer. Got INS approval today. Pre op visit next Thursday. Come on surgery date! Lol/ by the way, gonna be an October sleeved but always a September sleeved girl! ????

Tomorrow makes two weeks since I finished the whole process. Not understanding why they haven't submitted yet. They've already checked to make sure I have everything. Getting very very depressed! How can they do ppl this way

Almost ready to look for different Dr. I've been finished with everything for weeks. Can't even get them to submit for approval yet. Very aggravated!

Radar I would say. Alot of mixed emotions anytime surgery involved. But you're at the finish line almost! I'm awaiting a date myself. Should be getting possibly scheduled for pre op sometime in next week. Then a 10 day liquid diet.

Still hanging in there. Lol. Gonna be an October sleeved most apparently. But that's OK. Maybe for some reason just needs to be. Plus my mother is having a very difficult surgery again this coming Tuesday, so meant to be. ☺

Thanks!

Littleone83 my last appt before being turned into INS was Sept 9. already did my endoscopy, blood work, and all tests too. Hate this waiting game. Lol

I have BCBS of ky. My plan does cover me cause I called to dbl check before first appt. I have 3 co morbities BMI of 37.2.was filed last week. The INS lady in the office isn't very helpful. All she said is that my type of INS approved fast and should be scheduled for October. Have done all other tests

I'm awaiting an Oct date now. Mine was submitted for final approval last week. Very anxious!

I'm waiting too. My office said October for me but no exact date til final approval. Ugh. They were encouraging in saying mine approves fast. We'll see
