Submitted to Aetna

[Dawnie Doo 184]

Hello everyone,

Today was my last nutrition appt and this week, probably tomorrow, my information will be submitted to Aetna. I did all that I was supposed to do. Now I'm simply praying that all goes as planned.

My only jitters are about the surgery itself Advice? Input? Thoughts? Lol

OMG wow that was fast! Congrats! Now I'm nervous. I haven't heard anything yet. Just curious, how was your weight history from first nutrition appt to the last one?

You perfectly answered my question. My first weigh in was 293. Then 282. Final 284. I was worried about those last two lbs, but they approved you. So I have hope! Lol Thank you so much! Woo hoo! Lol

So, Aetna just decided to share that they have special IOQ facilities, and the hospital I'm going through isn't one of them, even though they're in network! Ugh! Smh I'm approved, just not through that hospital! Smh
