My file was sent to UHC on Friday. I called tonight just for kicks and giggles, but it wasn't showing in the system yet. So I shall try again at a later date!!

Yes definitely try again! My insurance company told me they work over the weekend on these approvals so maybe yours does too! <3

I'm really hoping you hear something soon sassy!

In the meantime, I have two more appointments left before going in for final approval from insurance; one is schedule for this coming Friday and the last is early next week. Why do I feel like time has gone into slow motion suddenly? Usually time flies by, except now I feel like I'm never going to get done with these appointments!!!

Ugh. Hopefully once it goes to insurance it won't take them forever to approve. Fingers crossed for both you sassy and me!!!!

Ladiessss! I have officially been approved! I'm still in total shock but so glad it's FOR SURE this time! My file was submitted last Friday so I was approved in 2 business days which totally surprised me! I am so stinkin excited.

@@RNYDawn isn't your date soon??? Please keep us posted on your progress. I'm tickled pink for you and @@Nurse_Lenora !

@@Renkoss thank you so much! And yes- I believe the time at the end seemed to slow down drastically for me as well. Your appointments will be here and gone before you know it! Our surgery dates may be fairly close :) I will definitely be sending prayers your way as you await the decision from insurance! Let me know how it all goes for you :)

Sassy, I am pre-op! I just finished up month 3 of the 6 month insurance requirement! I expect my surgery to be in May or early June at the latest!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
