I called them just for the heck of it and the insurance got the claim but the pre cert,have not recieved it yet so the insurance was gonna call doc office so they can send it to pre cert team, So that's a start I know it was to soon to call but I figured what r they gonna do yell at me , lol . So now maybe things will be on the roll now. Don't fell bad I think there's a bunch of us waitng. My friend got approved and we both got Aetna . So fingers crossed !!

I want to call daily, lol. I did reach out to them the other day to get clarification on a letter that was sent. They told me that they provide a decision within 15 days and that I should hear something by August 12. I'm a little less anxious now that I have a deadline.

I also have Aetna and waiting on approval. I finished my 3 mt program on July 24th, my doctor office told me they have up to 30 days to give a response. I have called Aetna 2 times and they don't see anything in their system.

I finished my 3 month program on July 2nd but still needed a few things before it could be submitted to my insurance company. My doctors office told me 15 days so I'm hoping by then end of next week at the latest I will have an answer. I called Aetna yesterday and they told me that it was processing.

Ok, I called this evening....couldn't contain myself. I was told that they are "working on August 29th but it is not yet approved". That made me a little happy :)

As of today I am APPROVED for surgery! I am so happy when she told me I yelled in excitement. I was discouraged for a moment but it happened! I have an appointment with my surgeon on August 21st so hopefully sometime next month I will be saying hello to a new me!

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
