March Surgery Dates

I've seen topics where members having surgery in the same month have kinda banded together to offer support and encouragement to one another. I think this is a wonderful idea, and I'd like to see if there's anyone having surgery in March that would like to support one another.

I have a tentative date for the second or third week in March. I have UHC through Georgia Pacific and they use BRS for approvals. I don't expect any delays, nor does my surgeon's office, so she saved me a spot, so to speak, lol.

Tonight I have my psyc eval, and Monday is my information class, I have two more visits, 2/5 and 3/5 of my six month supervised diet, and on March 5th when I leave my PCP's office, I'll take my worksheet to the surgeon and we'll submit to insurance. That's where I'm at!

I'd love to talk with others that are looking at the same time frame as me!! :D

Well starting my pre-op liquid diet today. All very exciting. I have my nutritional shake to take but not sure what else. Will be in contact with my dietician first thing this morning.

This is gonna be hard I think. As I have a conference this week.

But I know it has to be done.

Next on deck ... RoxyFoxy, jen2013 & vachick!!! So excited for each of you. I will be praying for you to have peace, your surgeons and to recover quickly!! Best wishes!

Mine too! And keep the prayers coming for the 3 March 5th patients: Foxy Roxy' date=' Jen and myself as we try to get thru out last day of our "old life"!!
