If it wasn't for bad luck....

I'm a former lap bander (successful). Now 2 yrs w/out my band I'v gained 120+ . I was feeling like sht and started going to drs because of aches in joints and no energy, breathless, yadda yadda. So in sept My dr suggested bariatric surgery to me again. I was really surprised that he did...to me that meant, you need it! So I ran with it...because I guess i needed someone to give me that push ( I was afraid to do such an invasive surgery). So that's alittle history of me. In September I decided to have the surgery, saw my surgeon. I already had all of my tests done just because I was feeling so crappy. So December 5th I signed my consent and Monday 12/17 it was approved..YAYYYYY!! But guess what...January 1st my insurance changes from Oxford to BCBS so now in January all my documents have to be sent to this new insurance company and see if THEY approved me :/ My dr is going away for the holidays so no chance for surgery in Dec. And I'm booked for a cruise in February so it's javing surgery in January wont be good because its to close to my family vacation (who knows how I'll feel). I'm dissssgusttttedddddd!!
