I'm in that same boat right now. It has been one week, one day since my decision visit with the surgeon. All my pre ops are finished. As soon as insurance clears, I can get my date!! Good luck to you. Hope we both get cleared soon!

I don't do my pre op testing at the hospital till after my insurance approves....but I got all 6 of my classes done and all my labs done! What all do you do in the pre op testing? Keep your fingers cross for a quick date! ;-)

What classes did you have to take? Every surgeon requires something different. I had 4 sessions with a nutrition psychologist, 2 meetings with a nutritionist, lots of lab work, AbG, urine screening, ultra sound, barium swallow, EKG, an informational session at the surgeons office, and a consult with the anesthetist. All before insurance clearance. I am even registered at the hospital already. Hoping to hear from insurance company this week!

The 6 classes I had to take was the swl classes nicotine test drug test unrine test thyroid test but all the other testing will be done at the hosp after I hear from insurance

Woot woot welcome !

I just got approved today!!! December 20!

Whoo Hoo!!

Thanks!!! Lets get this show on the road. Bring on the liquid!! I start my liquid diet on December 5.

I was so shocked that my surgeon doesn't require a liquid diet prior to surgery. As long as I keep the 15 lbs required off the day of surgery.

Mine didn't require it neither.
