Just faxed over my insurance and paperwork to the surgeons office. Waiting for them to call me (takes about 2 weeks). Not sure that I currently fit all of the criteria so I may have to wait 6 months to get approved but I feel it'll be worth the wait. Met with my regular physician yesterday to get bloodwork and discuss the surgery options. Anyone else in the early beginning stages?

Just want to say how helpful u all have been! Thanks for sharing your stories!!!

Good luck

I am so excited for you! I hope once I decide there is not a lot of waiting.

I have just requested my referral, I have a Pre-Op Seminar to attend on October 30th and first consult on Nov 1. I have verified with my insurance company 100% coverage, except co-pays, nutritional counciling and $75 hospital copay for overnight - do you stay overnight or is it outpatient? Anybody know how long off from work you would need? Desk job..

I am nervous and have not even told my husband about it yet...I figured I would wait until I have done all my research and consult to see for sure if this is a good option for me.

Are there any questions that I should specifically ask?

Thanks!

I think it's outpatient if you don't have complications??
