The two week wait

I think waiting for the insurance to respond with my approval is more nerve wracking than waiting to find out if I was pregnant!!!

    I feel your pain. I waited 4 weeks initially then they wanted more a letter from my pcp which took me 2 weeks to get and then another 4 weeks waiting on insurance. Drove me crazy! It's quite a lesson in patience, which is very hard for most of us.

    Good luck!
