Waiting on surgery date

Well I got my approval today, UHC took a little less than a week, got the news today. I am really excited but I am really kind of freaking right now, just waiting on the surgery date, I have to have my $250.00 program fees paid before I can get a surgery date, that will be done Friday, then they will call me with a date, and the blood work appointment and schedule the EGD. Now I am getting scared. Any advice would be appreciated. I have already taken several deep breaths, lol.

Yeah, I had a net gain during my 3 month NUT visits. My husband had a heart attack and triple bypass at age 37. So not to make excuses, but I had a lot going on and gained 4 pounds over where I started. Ugh. But I'm appealing in hopes they have a heart and will see I'm more focused and ready for this now more than ever. :)

I am excited for you! I just did my last appointment at KC Bariactric yesterday. They are going to submit my stuff to UHC and as soon as they approve it I will get my three appointments too! I am so stinking excited I have a hard time going to sleep and a hard time concentrating at work during the day!! Who knows maybe we will be about the same time getting our surgeries.
