Hi,

Well, I am through everything but my Psy. evaluation which is the 30th. I figured there must be someone else looking at this site, reading everything they can and staring at pictures while waiting for approval from the Insurance company.

The more I see the stories and success here the more I feel that this is what I need. With that being said, my biggest fear is a Insurance denial. So if there is anyone who wants to buddy up to chat about the waiting game etc.. let me know. I hope it will go faster and be more fun to start this journey together.

My Dr. sent my paper work over a week ago. I called BCN and they had still not gotten it and it was not even in their system. I call my Dr. and she called them and found out they are having a hard time inputting everything in their NEW computer system. Anyway, I hope they will give me a answer this coming up week.

If you have BCN you may want to check on your status.

. UGH!!!!!

I am lucky I guess. I have been working with my Dr. for losing weight for a long time. I finally said F-IT and went to see the WLS Dr. Mid Sept because I was fed up! I had all my appointments done within two weeks. I had to wait 2 more weeks (about) for my Insurance to say okay. So I only had one month from deciding I wanted this surgery to Approval. I think that is one reason I am a bit freaked out. I had done my 6 months of dieting before I even thought about WLS. they are saying that the surgery is about 3 weeks out.

Wow that was fast I had my first apt sept 12 next is oct 27 in between testing testing testing ughhhh! And diet still doing some testing so long in between when u can get apts for testing they told me someone would call me re setting up sleep study and edg they did for the sleep study but not for the edg and I just waited for them to contact me believing what I was told finally last week I called to ask why I haven't been scheduled and they tell me I have to call to set it up I was like OMG I could have done that weeks ago if there wasn't miscommunication so now I have to wait till dec for edg I was so hoping to get this done before Xmass and it's just not going to happen ???? but I'm so happy for u to move forward and everyone else too!
