Frustrated

You know we already dread waiting the 6 or 7 mo to do all this hoop jumping but to have to wait for a Dr. To just sign an evaluation and fax it over is just ridiculous. I had my Pysc eval on the 11th and she said they would have it faxed by the end if the week....well guess what no she didn't. Know a 1 1/2 week later dr Dr. Is out til Saturday and then he may sign it and fax it. HELLO you would think the nurse that did the evaluation would know how important and how anxious I am being that she had WLS a few years ago. Just had to vent, I guess another week won't kill me but I sure don't like it...

I remember wishing every day was surgery day for months... the time did go by quick though and now I'm 2 months post-op and it feels like my surgery was a long time ago...

Hang in there!

I understand your frustration... I think we all do... I hated the hoop jumping.. You know what annoyed me the most? Was having to spend the night in the hospital for the sleep apnea test. OMG I wanted to pluck out those peoples eyelashes one by one lol! Hang in there it will happen before you know it!!

That stuff they put in ur hair was terrible and the next morning I couldn't even take a shower and the tech said "I'm glad it's still dark outside because your hair looks awful"....lol. Oh well I'm just sssooooo ready to hv this done and start my "new" life

I agree the 7 months have been fast but I'm just so ready. How are u doing?

I'm sorry you are going through this, chill fog now cause the closer you the more intense.

They probably already have you penciled in on their schedule and know the time needed to get the insurance approval done so are getting to it as needed. The numbers of these is rising quickly so they pace themselves as needed.

Maybe your right. I did call my coordinator and she said that is all she is waiting on so maybe she will get it Monday.
