Mine is the 19th too hopefully insurance pending approval.

Had my pre-op yesterday and paperwork is submitted to insurance company !!! Now the waiting game begins....so anxious ! I start liquid diet on Monday but am trying a few shakes etc now to see how it will go. My BMI was 35.6 when I started this process and my insurance needs 2 co-morbids to qualify. My surgeon seems to think it should be ok and the insurance will accept my high cholesterol and mild sleep apnea as qualifiers but I am still anxious. Anyone else have BLUECROSS/BLUESHIELD ILL ? and experience the same ? and what is turnaround time on approval??

I have BCBS of IL

It took less than one day to get approval!

I had bcbs of il and it took from 9-9 to 9-26 to get an answer

I will start my 2 week pre-op diet on Monday. I am not looking forward to it but so ready to be done with it. Cant believe the time flew by so fast! Keep us updated everyone who's doing their pre-op diet soon. Once again GOOD LUCK EVERYONE!!!

I start my pre-op diet monday too! Surgery November 4th
