Getting excited....

Hey all,

I'm getting closer. I had my nutrition apt. On the 7th and submitted to insurance on the 10th I have not heard yet and I'm getting anxious. How long did it take for your insurances to approve and how long after that till u had surgery. I already cut out caffeine and high fat foods as well as have stopped taking and aspirin products to prepare. Anything else you guys can suggest I start doing now

Thanks for the help

      They told me insurance had up to 30 days, and they approved me in less than 24 hours. Sent from my iPhone using RNYTalk

      Yay insurance called today and I was approved for surgery. Now just waiting for the doctors office to call to set a date. Ahh this may be the worst part of the whole process, the waiting game

    It took 2 weeks to get my approval after submission. GOOD LUCK!

    Stop taking any fish oil, multi oil, birth control, Motrin, and anything else then thins your blood. Those where all the meds I had to stop. ;)
