ALMOST THERE!

So today I completed my 3 month program with my NUT. I told her that I was worried about being approved by Aetna due to the fact that my weight fluctuated the entire three months. She told me she's never heard of anyone being denied due to gaining so I'm praying that she's right. Next week I meet with my Psychologist for the final testing phase with her and the only other thing I am waiting for is my letter of medical necessity that I am still waiting for from my PCP. I was told by the bariatric coordinator that she also received word from my OB/GYN yesterday that he was in the midst of writing one as well. My PCP informed me yesterday that she had completed my letter just needed to fax it but I swear they are in their own little bubble and does thing when THEY WANT to do them. I also asked them if they had submitted my medical records and said they seen nothing about it. I asked my bariatric coordinator if she requested them and she said that if had been done when I started the program three months ago!! I am crossing my fingers this will all be taken care of by the end of the month so that I can submit all my paperwork and hopefully be approved! I'm so exited I just want it to be submitted already. And on top of all of that the valet at the hospital this morning wrecked my car ugh!

    Will do! I told my NUT about your post and she told me she's never heard of anyone being denied for weight gain so I am praying she is right. Besides a couple loose ends I should have all my paperwork submitted in the next two weeks :)
