UHC has approved my VSG



Recommended Posts

I'm so excited my insurance company has approved me, I called them today because I could not wait for them to call me. My excitment was short lived after I called my surgeons coordinator with the news, she sound like she was upset that I called my insurance company (maybe because she said it would take 15 days for an answer) any way I ask she start my pre-op testing I have not received a call back with my appt. dates. I did not know you would be on a emotional roller coaster just trying to have the SURGERY.

What will my life be like after my surgery????:confused1::svengo::crying:

Believe me ... the emotional roller coaster is just beginning. But, it's only a blip in time ... soon you will be sleeved and watching the pounds drop off like crazy!

Congrats on your approval. (P.S. - I love your avatar!)

YEA!!! Congrats to you. I am still waiting for approval. I was denied last time, but have since been diagnosed with sleep aptnea and possible high blood pressure. Hopefully, they will approve me this time.

Yolanda,

Welcome to VSTalk! I'm a fellow Buckeye currently jumping through all the hoops for ins approval.

Can I ask where you've having surgery and who your surgeon is? I hope to have surgery in Bowling Green Ohio with Dr. Lalor.

Hope you get a date real soon. I have to wait for about a month and a half to complete all my pre-op appointments.

Your surgeon's coordinator sounds like a prude...she/he should be happy for you. She/he must have a control problem :crying:.

Best wishes for you!

I know about the roller coaster, I'm still on mine. I'm on the down ride now. I have been up and down, up and down a few times now. Now I feel like I'm just spinning in a circle around, and around and around. I will not go into my story as you have all probably read it a few times now. But just think you are almost there. Congrats on the approval, and let us know when you get your date, that will be another up the hill on that roller coaster. lol:laugh0:

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
