July 31, 20169 yr Are you all prepared? When do they do ur insurance approval? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G870A using the BariatricPal App I've been through Psych and Nutrition counseling (April-June). Approved late June. Now I'm just waiting for pre-op testing (Upper GI series. EKG - 8/10) and blood work. Last step is pre-op with surgeon and a pre-op class. It's been a little slow since insurance approval. I'm getting anxious for a date.
July 31, 20169 yr I'm September 6th! I was hoping for a date in August but my hospital was super booked. I'll settle for September 6th though. It's the greatest feeling ever. It just hasn't hit me yet. My bariatric class, pre op testing, and last appointment with my surgeon is August 18th. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
