August 8, 201213 yr I'm also hoping for an October date. My final nut appointment is 9/4 - in a perfect world it would be end of September but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for October. Anyone been turned down after doing the 6 month insurance wait game? That's my biggest fear.
August 8, 201213 yr I have a little over a month before surgery approval. I am hoping for a date in Oct. it has been a long 5 months wait but I have taken that time to learn about the surgery and life after surgery from these posts!
August 8, 201213 yr I was told by my surgeons assistant that I have a tentative date of October 2. It sounds so far away by its actually less than 2 months away. I would like to be able to hope it was sooner but I need this time to develop healthy habits and to shrink my liver. Less than 2 months. Eeeeep!
August 8, 201213 yr I turn 21 in Oct and that's when my insurance can give me info about surgeons and all that good stuff. So October is a big month for me too Im 3 months into my 6 months of supervised weightloss and I'm going to schedule a psych eval soon hope eveythings smooth sailing for us
August 8, 201213 yr October 23rd for me. I'm in the 6 month insurance waiting period now. I have my sleep study scheduled for 08/21 & Psych eval scheduled for 08/10. Other than those last two, I HOPEFULLY have jumped through all the other hoops (Cardiologly clearance, Pulmonology clearance, Neurology clearance, 2 support group meetings, Nutritional education). My BMI is 40. I am going to be beyond devastated if my insurance denies me when my time comes. That has been my biggest fear throughout this whole process.
