I would tell the docs what the situation was and hopefully they can work with it! I asked to be moved to July from August and they were able to accomodate me!! Good luck!

Pre-Op is tomorrow, the 23rd and my surgery is scheduled for Tuesday the 27th of July! Hard to believe it is here after dreaming about this for years. I have to give a big thumbs up to UnitedHealthcare and my employer's benefits. It was really easy and my heart goes out to those of you that had/have trouble getting approved. I can only imagine how stressful that is. I did pretty well on the pre-op diet but it wasn't as strict as some that I have read about. I guess I am ready:smile:

I thought I would die without my diet coke and I am now 4 weeks free!! I never thought about how real that bloat was from "diet" soda. Good Luck!!
