So excited for Orientation this week!

[Nanny'shappy 37]

Hello everyone! I am just beginning the process for the sleeve surgery. I have Orientation this Friday. I already know my insurance will not pay, so I will be paying for the procedure myself. I figure it's ok to take money from my retirement account, so the rest of my life should be happier. So what if I have to work a few more years to make up the money I'm taking out of my account for the surgery!!! At least those years will be happier and healthier!!!

Anyone know what time frame I'm looking at till I can have my surgery. No insurance requirements, just the normal tests, etc. the surgeon will do. Am I looking at 1 month, 2, 3??? When I make up my mind to do something...I want to get it done! I'm so excited to have a new beginning to my life! I'm 50 years old and I haven't been this excited about anything in a very long time. Any other "self-pays" know how long my wait time will be? Thanks!

I had to save some more money to get mine so I took six months. I think if I would have had my money up front it would have only taken maybe 1 month, 2 tops. Once I had my money everything was boom, boom, boom right there. Congrats to you!! I wish you the best success!!
