I submitted to insurance June 5th and had approval on June 11th. I called every single day to follow up with my insurance. My surgery is June 24th!

Sounds like BCBS varies state to state. There are also different types of plans. I have BCBS of Oregon Federal Employee Program. I am hopeful of for fast approval.

I have BCBS of Kansas. I think it took about a week and 1/2. I called them every other day to "check in" and knew before the Dr's office was notified.

I'm in Dayton Ohio. My paperwork was submitted Monday. I was told I wouldn't hear back for at least two weeks. I'm so nervous about what I will do if they don't approve it. Will I have to be on this diet yoyo forever, ugh!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
