Finished all of my requirements and the surgeon's office submitted my request for approval to insurance yesterday! I hate this part. With no tasks to complete, no one monitoring me and no certainty about if this surgery will happen or not I feel a little lost. Any thoughts on this waiting game are appreciated. Anything that kept you motiviated? I would love to hear about how long it took to get a response from insurance.

I'm in wait mode too. They have had mine for a week and two days. I'm ready. I just keep reading and making notes so I know what to expect. And trying to cut back on sugar, caffeine, and eat slower.

same for me, one week and two days for insurance approval.

As long as everything that your insurance company needs is submitted the approval doesn't take long at all. You can call your doctors office and ask for the pre-cert number and call your insurance if you want to see "if they need any additional information". Sqeaky wheel gets the oil as they say.

Good luck and let us know when you get your date!!
