OMG......Approved and Nervous

Okay I was nervous waiting for approval and 2 of my good friends one who had the sleeve herself said call them, bug the heck out of the insurance company, well I called and I was approved 30 mins ago and now I am really nervous as all get out. I have BCBS of IL insurance, I got approval and did all the requirements done in less than a month about 3 weeks really. I am stoked and nervous for real now......
