Submitted Feb. 13th, approved Feb. 21st, Surgery date Feb. 23rd.. I was calling my insurance company every day to see if I was approved. Once it got approved I called my Dr office immediately and got the ball rolling

[/img] March 20th for me too!!! I don't think it REALLY hit me yet

Praying for you and your situation. Made God grant you PEACE even in the storm

How did that come about???

Yaaaaaaay u!!!! Congratulations!!! I'm March 20th!!!

Sweet!!!! Thanks

I keep seeing people post about pre-op diets that they had to be on for weeks. I'm a little confused because my Dr only requires 3 day liver shrinking diet before surgery.

What do you recommend I pack?

Is the sleeve surgery an overnight stay?

SWEET!!! I'm the 20th.... Do you know if it's an overnight stay??

Yaaaaaay you!!! CONGRATS

Gotcha!! I have to have 3 appts.. But I don't care I'm doing it!!!

Thank you!!!! Why did you say No???

I just got my surgery date for March the 20th.. I have BCBS TX and I'm curious what others have had to pay out of pocket for the surgery?? and even for the endoscopy and gallbladder test.

I got my surgery date!!! OMG this is REAAALLLYYYY HAPPENING!! I think I'm getting a little nervous but I CAN'T turn back now!!!! #March20th

Yaaaaay you!!!! Thanking God in advance for a successful surgery

That's what I have been told too.. "You're not big enough".... Well I got approved by my insurance so CLEARLY I'm big enough Lol..

Do what's best for YOU.... That is the main reason I haven't told anyone (except my husband and my mom)because I don't need nor do I want people's opinions. BUT I have NOT told my mom and my hubby that I'm approved and only waiting on my surgery date [emoji50]

I'm waiting on the scheduler from my Dr's office to call me with my date and the date for my tests!!! She mentioned that I will have to do a endoscopy anf a gallbladder ultrasound. Are these test covered by insurance??? #EXCITED!!

NO MCD'S.... YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

I called my Dr as soon as I hung up with the insurance. (Oh and I emailed the Dr too)... So when they call me tomorrow I should be prepared for tests to be scheduled.... What type of tests?

Yaaaaay you!!! CONGRATULATIONS... So I am a little confused on the process... Who gives the date? The insurance? The surgeon?

I called my insurance company and found out that I am APPROVED!!!!! I'm curious as to what comes next??

I JUST FOUND OUT THAT I'M APPROVED!!!!! WHOOPI HOOOOO!!

How long have you been waiting?
