June 2014 Dates!?

[m_rose 35]

Hi fellow RNY patients!

I received a phone call this past Monday the 24th saying my perspective date is June 30th obviously if all previous tests go according to plan!

Anyone else having their surgery this June??

I am! They haven't told me the date but I can expect around the first week of June! I'm so excited, counting down the days! Like can it go by a quicker!!!! I have one more nutrition class in April and I'm all done with pre op testing

I've been told either June or July! Not sure which I'm hoping for.... Part of me wants to do this and be done with the surgery, and the other part wants a bit more time! Oh the battles our brains play with us....

I should be having mine in June. I have one more appt after Monday and hope to schedule my surgery. does anyone know if they will go ahead and schedule the surgery while you are waiting for insurance approval?

@@consuela11 Well I went in for my first appointment on March 20th and already recieved a phone call on Monday the 24th stating my surgery date of June 30th. My insurance requires I lose 5% of my body weight to be approved. I think it varies from state to state, company to company.

@@Melanie36 I hear ya there!! I feel like this is all happening so fast! It's so exciting but definitely nervewracking at the same time.

Thanks for the info. I had to complete 6 months seeing a nutr. I am right on the edge of where I won't be covered if I lose any weight. So I have been maintaining the past 4 months. That has been a little nerve racking. I can't lose any or gain Any.

@michelle_rose I was wondering if you could share your experiance with me? I'm also in Upstate NY and am thinking about moving forward with surgery I would like more information on the pre-op process from first contact to scheduling of surgery. How long was the process, what insurance do you have, etc. Thanks for your help any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
