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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
