I had my stress test, nutrition and psych appt, on monday and this is the last of testing required now just gotta sit tight and wait...........will someone call me or will I get something in the mail if its approved?

You should hear from your Dr. office, I did, but if you don't hear from them, I'd give them a call. I'm sure they wouldn't mind, I call my Dr. office all the time and they are always more than willing to answer my questions.

my pcd called me and also the lap band surgeons office called me and my ins sent me an approval letter...hope you hear great news soon...keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Thanks for the replies. The surgeons office did call today...but not with great news, they called to say my stress test was abnormal and that i have CAD, and are referring me to a cardiologist for further testing and clearence for surgery. Not the news I ever wanted to hear, my mom died at age 43, and grandmother at age 54, both from heart related issues. I am only 26 years old with 3 young children so I took today to cry all day but will call the cardiologist in the morning for an appt. I never wanted to hear this news, and am feeling a little anxious and nervous.
