I went to see my surgeon today it was also the last required appointment with NUT.

All required testing are completed the blood work, EKG, chest X ray, H-pylori breath test, sleep study, cardiologist clearance, psychiatrist clearance, psychologist clearance.

All my paperwork will be submitted to my insurance company and now I just have to wait to see if I'm approved for surgery.

Doctor said the patient navigator will be giving me a call with surgery date.

Time went by fast and another 1 or 2 won't hurt to wait for decision.

have to wait to see if I'm approved for surgery.

Thanks Kathy I hope so too.

Well I found out that my package has not yet been sent for approval to BCBS. The surgeon is waiting for clearance from the cardiologist and I have an appointment to see her on 02/11/16.

The patient navigator said as soon as they get that the surgeon will sign off on it and then it will be sent out for approval.

And the wait continues.....
