I just got the call! I am approved! OMG!!! I am so excited..... I have been making myself crazy for weeks!

I didn't really even start this venture until mid-late summer and it really has happened so fast, but the wait for that call has been horrendous. I still have to wait for the scheduling call now, which could be next week, but at least I know this is going to happen!

Thank goodness! 38 years of fighting for results that don't last, now even though I have to fight for my life; it will be worth it and hopefully maintenance in the end will be the only fight I have left.

So glad I have a place to share, even though no may listen; it's still an outlet - so thank you!

I have decided not to tell family except husband and my kids. This is my on going journey and I don't want anyone clouding my decisions or judgements.

Congratulations!!! I am not telling anyone except my husband and bff. My surgery will be in three weeks, I am beside myself!!

Congrats and best wishes on your approval!

Congrats ????????

Congrats! It's such a relief when that approval comes in!

And as you mentioned, you can get so much out of this site. It is such a great place to learn, vent, share successes, etc. Good luck to you on your journey!

@@Terra B Congratulations!

Thank you all so much! I have really enjoyed looking at this site for the past few weeks doing my research and reading up on everyone's thoughts and experiences. I will continue to rely on this place and the wonderful support from all you wonderful, caring people!

Happy Journey! I will soon be on it with you, all!

Congratulations!! you are going to be so happy!! Best of luck and God bless.

Congratulations and good luck!!

Congratulations!!I too received my approval after initially being filed Nov. 5th. Called EVERY day since and finally after the surgeon's office provided the fax confirmation, the insurance company admitted that it was misfiled and a supervisor had it sent for review today. They called back within 10 minutes and provided a reference #. Same as you, just waiting for a scheduler to call now. Excited and nervous all at the same time. Good Luck to you!!!
