Congrats!!!! I'm a state employee as well BCBS of New Jersey...I was submitted today hopefully I'm approved as quickly as you were!

The stats on VST show that BCBS is very expedient about approving pre-certifications! The process will flow smoothly! Call them tomorrow to confirm receipt of your clinical documentation.

Thanks! I called today but they said they didn't have anything but that once received my doctor would have an answer in 5 business days.

They don't have an answer or they don't have your paperwork? If they don't have your clinical information and your coordinator supposedly submitted it...then you need to give the coordinator a call!!!!

It is true about the variation in info. Just keep calling until you hear you're approved!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
