  1. Awesome I'd love to be!!!!
  2. I got my surgery date!! April 18
  3. I got approved yay! 6 days from the time they actually sent the paperwork in until approval
  4. Just got the call! April for me, I'll have the exact date next Tuesday
  5. Wow you're really lucky: I have Medicaid and they won't tell me a thing over the phone and I don't see anything on the website
  6. I called the insurance today and they said they can't give me information and that they send everything to the surgeon and that I have to go through the surgeon's office. So annoyed
  7. Wow that's awesome! I never even thought about calling them until you guys mentioned it
  8. Good luck to you too!!! I'll give them a call in a couple days
  9. I just finally got everything sent to insurance today! How long was your wait for approval? How long after that was your surgery date scheduled?? I have Medicaid and I'm trying to find out a rough estimate of my timeline
  10. I just want to be done and over with the waiting to see if I'm approved lol. Did you go to Dr Sloan?
  11. Oh wow so it took 3 months from the time you submitted to insurance to actually have the surgery? Ugh... I'm so sad. I just want to be done
  12. That's going to be so tough!
  13. Wow that's soon!!! Congrats!!
  14. Nina did you find out yet?
  15. Gina did you get approved? Are you going to Dr Sloan?
  16. You've made me so happy achappex3... I love having someone to talk to that's been thru it and gives me hope!
  17. I broke down and called today. The surgeons office still hasn't gotten my psych eval that I did Monday... so they haven't submitted to insurance yet. Omg I've already been waiting 10 months since I started this process... I just want to know already [emoji27]
  18. I was just in there yesterday and it took all my restraint to not call today
  19. I just finished everything for insurance this week. The wait for approval/denial is killing me - I can't sleep or think. What did you guys do during your wait to make it tolerable? How long was your wait?
