I got the call from Dr. Higa's office a few minutes ago saying Blue Cross had approved me today! My date is March 18th, 10 days before my bday! Super excited, nervous, scared, relived, stressed all wrapped up in one. Please send prayers my way folks.:amen:....We need a rock on smiley on here.

Sending all my best wishes on a painfree and speedy recovery!

Awesome!! we are wishing you a speedy recover and a pain free surgerry

That is great news! Congrats!

My DH is getting sleeved on 3/7/11...which actually happens to BE his birthday...lol. He picked the date, not me.

Thanks guys. I just noticed I put this in the wrong forum, thought it was going in pre op...Good luck to your husband hope his surgery and recovery goes well.

Yay!!!!! I've noticed that I'm seeing a lot more approvals!

Seems like a no-brainer for insurance companies to make the process easier. Over the years - I'm sure I'll save my insurance company many $$'s since I no longer need most of my meds. Goodbye diabetes!!! Goodbye high blood pressure!!! Goodbye potential cardiac procedures!!!
