Just got my approval I have been praying for this now im scared to death and happy at the same time..

Yay, congratulations. It is natural to be scared going into any type of surgery. Just remember why you are doing this.

Thanks

I'm really new here. How did you get approved? Did you go to your regular doctor first and then they referred you to a surgeon for a consult? What happened in those appointments? What did they do to determine if you were eligible? I'm not even sure what to expect or where to start...

Congrats!

Congrats, My office will be submitting my paperwork soon, about 2 weeks. Im more anxious for the approval than the surgery.

Jessi I first picked the surgent I wanted to use made a appointment and he told me what to do next....u have to have lots of test and 6 months straight of visits with ur primary care doctor...

Jessi rae I know how you feel that can be very difficult or it was for me.

Thank you, and its so hard to wait. Hopefully I will see the surgeon sometime next week, and than I have the long waiting game of finding out if im approved. How long did it take you to be approved and what did you do until you found out??

I started the "process" in April and I was just approved by my insurance on Friday.

I had to visits my PCP once a month for six months. I also had to have different tests, psych clearance, EKG...
