  2. I'm in Richmond as well! I don't have a surgery date yet. I'm waiting to get approved through my insurance before I get a date. My surgery will be at Bon Secours St. Mary's. Good luck with your journey! ☺ Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App Hi, I am having the sleeve on 09.15 in Bon Secours St. Mary's as well. I live in Glen Allen.

  5. I'm Sept 8th as well! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App That's awesome! How are you feeling about everything? I know as soon as a date was set my nerves really hit, even though I'm a 1000% sure it's the right choice.It's weird, some days I'm really anxious and that's all I think about and other days I'm like totally chill. Honestly, I'm just ready to be on the losers bench, I'm ready to be healthy, motivated, and feel good about myself. What about you? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App

  16. I can't believe how worried I was about not passing my psych eval. It was all of 15 minutes and the psychologist said I was good to go! How exciting!! Tomorrow I see my PCP for my final 6 month weigh in. Now I'm getting anxious, everything is finally coming together. I'm hoping to get my approval in the next few weeks. Words can't express how I feel right now. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App
  17. She coded them as follow ups and one was coded as a problem. None of the notes mentioned weight loss. They mentioned other things. I'm just really hoping after I meet with her Friday she can go back and amend the records. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App If she didn't properly document - she needs to amend them. Follow Up or Problem wouldn't necessarily be the code submitted to insurance. There should have been an obesity related diagnosis.I totally agree. Very frustrating! Geez Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App

  20. So I've been seeing my primary care physician once a month for the past 5 months as a requirement for WLS. So today I find out that my doctor hasn't been coding those appointments correctly and only one of her notes mention weight loss! I'm so frustrated and I feel like my insurance isn't going to approve me now! I'm so close, July 1st was supposed to be the end of my 6 months and now I feel like I've hit a road block! My emotions are all over the place. I'm sad, I'm angry, I'm disappointed, and I really just feel like giving up. I feel hopeless now. ???? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N920A using the BariatricPal App

  24. Sounds like a plan! Thanks again! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App
  25. Oh I feel so much better know that you did it without help! I'm not going to have help either so that's so reassuring to hear that you did it alone. Thanks! Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using the BariatricPal App
