So many bumps in my road...

Hello all I've not checked in since around April....I was looking today to see how long I've been on this forum and it's been 2 years this month! And I still have not gotten my surgery!!!

I thought I had everything done for my insurance and when it got submitted on June 2nd it got declined due my psych evaluation was over 6 months old (that was because of that crazy allergic reaction I had back in January and spend 12 day in the hospital that kinda through everything off schedule).

So after that happened I hit a wall, didn't care, was over it, had a why bother attitude, this is taking way to long......Then the other day I had a little talk with myself and I had to remind me why I was doing all this in the first place.....my diabetes! The insulin, the every other month trips to the dr.s office, the blood pressure pills, the acid reflux pills, antidepressants, the high cholesterol and dangerously high triglycerides medicine the sleeping medicine and the list goes on and on...My GOD I'm a mess.

So...I put my big girl panties on and called to reschedule an evaluation with the psych Dr again (I go next Friday) and then my insurance coordinator at my hospital can resubmit to my insurance. I pray that I'm able to have surgery by September! So ready to move on.
