Thank you shellbell1007 i hope everything works out quick 4 you i know how it feels to be in the waiting game keep us posted as well before you know it you will be posting your date and letting us know you are ready and all set 2 gooo =) i will def keep posting

Congrats on your approval. I go through the process for two years and then get told I'm not eligible because my insurance will not pay for any gastric procedure which I thought was totally wrong!! Anyways, long story short, I end up finding a job for the same hospital that was going to operate. The hospital covers the surgery for its employees and I have a December date set. I can't wait but you are closer than me in terms of getting the procedure so I wish you all the luck in the world.

Your the 2nd person to say they found out today, Sunday. I found out I was approved Friday. Hope I can have surgery by the 15th.

Well I would love to hear all about your process since you are about to go through it. Thank you for the well wishes and yes, December is right around the corner. I'm sooo looking forward to it. Stay positive and just remember Philippians 4:13.

SleeveVPNYC ...Amen to that we sure can do all things through Christ who strengthens us =) ....well long story short i can say i didn't have to wait as long as some did i was diagnosed with PCOS and my PCP suggested that i start looking into bariatric surgery back in March this year she gave me all the info needed to a center of metabolic health that she is associated with i called them and when i did i noticed right from the start they were a little slow in the starting the process with patients. I called for 3 weeks just trying to set up an inicial appointment i finally got an answer and was given my 1st appointment to see the surgeon in September and then my first NUT appointment would have been in November waaaayy to long of a wait. I got some information from someone who had their surgery in B&W in Boston so in June i called to set up an appointment they quickly sent me to a 2 hour seminar and i was in to see my surgeon, 1st group NUT appointment, and lab work all on same day in July within that same week i had pretty much all my appointments saw the psych once, had an individual consultation with the NUT, and an Upper GI, in August i went back 2 see my surgeon to set a date he told me labs came out great, they did find a hiatal hernia when they did the Upper GI, and i was given a date for surgery. I had my preop testing done last week my paperwork were then submitted to my insurance and in less than 48 hrs i got an email saying i was approved and could move forward with my surgery (i was a bit worried about the insurance part all along) but my BMI was 43 when i started and i was told PCOS is one of the main medical reasons for an insurance to approve the surgery so it worked out just fine. Soo here i am a week away from my surgery anxious, nervous, scared, happy, all of the above =) God is good!
