Ok so I am sitting here with a BIG hunk of birthday cake and fixen to eat it.. please stop me... so I called my dr. today and asked if they got the approval letter from my ins. they said yes, I asked again are they sure I can get my surgery in june. She said well your hospital is now sheduling in july. SO JUNE IS OUT!!!! dammit... :angry

I am so tired, tired of this run around BS

tired of my knees hurting, tired of hating the way I look, (I am guessing this cake is not helping) tired OF WAITING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am sorry to be such a whiner, I just feel like I am never going to get the band...

(I talked so much the cake is gone, guess it's to late to stop me..Somebody please sew my mouth shut:speechles :speechles :speechles :speechles :speechles )

I know how you feel and your not alone. I too am in the fight of my life with Anthem BCBS. I've waited for 2 weeks just to find out if they'll cover me or not and all they can say is they don't know. I finally got enough and called Dr. Sanchez's office and got an appointment in Mexico for July21st. I'm all excited then, my daughter who is a Physician's Assistant had a cow. No, your not going to Mexico, just go on the 6 month diet that your insurance company wants you to go on and then maybe they'll cover. I'm so tired of maybe's and if's and but's. It's aggravating isn't it? Then when you think you've got it worked out, someone burst your bubble.

Just keep up the faith and it will happen. I know it seems like it won't now but it will. We've just got to grab down deep inside and hold on for this roller coaster ride. Just take a few minutes and calm down and don't worry about that cake. Once you get banded your appetite will diminish and life will get better, I promise.

I understand your frustration, SherriJo. But if you go to Mexico, just be sure, sure, sure to have your aftercare docs and fill docs lined up first. I can't think of anything worse that having a problem and need a doctor NOW and can't find anyone to treat you.

I know how you feel JenMomTo3.

I have been waiting for 10 months for my insurance.

I am finally booked in for the 17th July and CAN"T WAIT!!!

I understand your frustration, SherriJo. But if you go to Mexico, just be sure, sure, sure to have your aftercare docs and fill docs lined up first.

We could never afford this out of pocket! I am a full time nursing student and we are making it paycheck to paycheck. So I will just have to wait:cry Thanks guys for the support! I just want to cry, I am just praying I get a july appointment because I start back to school in aug.

OPPS, that was for her, sorry lol
