I am sooo deflated with this whole thing.. I am sooo over it.. the doctor's office has such a non-shalont attitude about things. I have called and emailed a million times trying to figure out if they changed the code with insurance… I just got of the phone with insurance and a whole new claim has to be submitted by the doctor.. and I got a nasty email from the insurance lady at the doctor’s office earlier saying that she is busy and she can’t submit my stuff this week because she is covering vacations and she has more important things to do that pertain to some patients that have potential life threatening issues not a procedure that is elective.. :’(

My vent.... I am a planner.. I have two small kids, a full time career, I volunteer a lot, and I have things and other obligations that I need to move around when it comes to surgery. I want this more than anything.. and it is driving me crazy not being able to plan things down to a T.. I have to have some sort of plan.. I won't have to worry about loosing my hair 3-4 months post-op.. I am going to pull it all out now.. :'(

That stinks. I know what you mean, we spend so much time researching & then trying to hurry up and get through the process. It seems like it takes forever!!!!

I know exactly what you mean. I've been waiting five years to have my surgery. because my insurance kept saying that I didn't have any pre obesity diseases or anything like that. so I've been waiting and waiting and waiting to get my insurance to approve my surgery finally. just last week because I'm on blood pressure medicine they finally said yes you're approved.now I have to do you the whole nutritionist and everything for 6 months before I can have my surgery but at least now I'll be approved.

It's just that this process is draining anyway.. then add other people's attitudes and insurance issues on it.. it's a wonder we aren't in the crazy house by the end of it..
