I can't believe that by next week I should have an answer from the insurance. It's crazy to think that if I'm approved I'll be sleeved in the next few weeks. The dr has agreed to help me get surgery before March 31st because on April 1 my insurance changes. Please send good vibes my way. I really don't want to go through this process with another insurance company if I'm denied.

I am going through this exact same thing. I am currently scheduled for March 20th pending insurance approval. My paperwork was supposed to be submitted yesterday… so I wait. My insurance changes on April 1st so I am trying desperately to be done by then. Good luck to you!

Make room in that boat for me too please, lol. My paperwork was submitted yesterday as well! The waiting game is not a game I play well!! Good luck everyone and keep us posted!!

I got approval today! Now I'm waiting for the surgery scheduler to call. Let me know your current status.

Submitted yesterday and tentatively scheduled for 3/25!! After 6 months I can't believe it's actually becoming a reality!

Got my surgery date today. This is happening on 3/19! I'm so happy and nervous :-)

3/19?!?! Wow!! You'll barely have time for your 2wk/10day pre-op !!!! Congrats on your date! I'm really happy for you!

Thank you. We don't have to do the liquid diet pre-op just the day before. Then there's a drink we take that cleans you out. May be what they use for colonoscopy but not sure.

Ok, that's kinda nice you don't have a pre-op diet. Are you planning any food funerals?

I got 3/26 can't wait.

I got the word today. UHC approved me, surgery 4/3. I cannot wait!!!

Work2do, that's sooo wonderful!! Congratulations! I bet you're just over the moon right now
