My insurance APPROVED my surgery...first try!!! I am SO relieved!!! Just have to wait for the nurse to call and schedule the surgery!!!! This could take up to a week, as the program coordinator told me there are 10 people ahead of me to schedule. But it should be early June!!!

MusicalMomma,

So sorry it took so long to answer your question...my dr. only requires Clear liquids the day before surgery; however, I think that I may try doing Protein shakes for the week before surgery. Don't know how well I'll do, but we'll see.

congrats.....All. It's such a good exciting feeling. When I got my award letter last month I put it on the wall in my living room. I was so happy and very releaved it took me 2 yrs to get approved so I didn't know if I should cry or jump up and down. Anyway good luck to all.
