Cigna Approved!



Recommended Posts

I had my last NUT appointment on Monday, the office submitted the paperwork on Tuesday and this morning I called Cigna assuming they would tell me it's pending but it was approved. It took only 2 days for approval. I'm just waiting to hear from the nurse so she can schedule me. I'm pretty excited. I was extremely nervous after hearing people being denied, and I didn't want to give Cigna a reason to deny me. :)

I also went thru Cigna, 2 day approval for the first surgeon and then I switched, just 3 days for the second surgeon. Congrats on a quick turnaround!

Cigna denied me after they told me I was approved. They said sorry, yes we have the tape recording that we gave you wrong coverage info. But you are still denied. I went through the entire program at mayo clinic driving 6 hours each way for months and months having $1000 in expenses and they do not care about my time, my heart ache beginning told no or my husband losing his job to help me make the very appt that were to give me hope at saving my life from other comibiditirie.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
