42 days and counting...



Recommended Posts

It's been 42 days since my records were submitted for approval.

What is the longest anyone has had to wait. Does the length of time tell you that I might not get approved???

I'm just so anxious that this may not happen.

Have you been calling the insurance company? I would begin a daily insurance call crusade!

I was calling everyday but they started saying that if I haven't heart from them, then I'm suppose to call the surgeons office because they will know something before me as they fax their decision to the surgeons office. Just giving me the brush off. I e-mailed the surgeon and his nurse said if they haven't heard anything by the 2nd of January she'll call them for a status report.

Do you think the length of time they are taking has any Bering on their decision?

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
