I thought I would neverrr hear the words...

...Elizabeth, you're approved!!!

Oh em gee! I couldn't believe it! When I saw the surgeon's # on my phone I was SO scared to answer! LOL The coordinator told me the Peer to Peer lasted 5 minutes and then Cigna approved it!!!

I'm going to leave out the roller coaster ride of the last 48 hrs, but let's just say I *almost* gave up! I was so disheartened when I learned last Friday that I did not have an approval when I thought I did. Then on Monday to hear that I was denied for missing info, then .... blah blah blah.

Please just don't give up. Don't lose hope...I almost did and now I'm very happy I didn't.

So still on for November 5th. Granted, that all pre-op tests come back OK :)
