Thank you! I know its crazy fast, I was expecting a week minimum.

I was submitted for approval today too...a bit nervous as I don't know what qualifies as "enough" failed attempts. Even if I am approved I think my doctor will have me wait a few months. I had a baby 9 months ago and they think everyone should wait a year. I understand the concerns but I also don't want to wait anymore!!!

Oh man good luck on your approval! I wouldn't be able to wait much longer then I what I've already waited. I got my approval in one day so luckily I didn't have to wait for that too long. Hope yours is fast too.

I just got the call from my coordinator- APPROVED!! I can't believe it. It was submitted to insurance on Tuesday and then forwarded to their utilization review company just yesterday morning- just over a day- BOOM! I'm so excited for the coming changes in my life!

I'm waiting too

@@gettingsleeved1 I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

I have my last NUT appt Monday and everything else is done so they should be submitting to the insurance company soon after. I started this journey the end of last year and have a surgery date for September 2nd. So nervous about the approval though.

I was nervous too especially once I knew my insurance had my paperwork lol. I had to tell myself that I did everything right and they don't have a reason to deny me.

I kind of feel the same way.. I know I have done everything that was asked of me and there is no reason to deny but we all worry about that rejection. I try not to think negative and have faith that I will be approved..
