i got a call today with an appointment date for oct 30 with the surgeon, this will me be with a different surgeon than the first one i had gone to. my first surgeon has talked to this surgeon and explained everything and she said that she would do surgery on me and gave me a date of nov 19th. i am surprised that i have a date without even meeting with the surgeon but seeming how the two surgeons have talked about my case she must be comfortable with it. i just hope that her and i click and i feel comfortable with her because if not ill have to travel a ways to see someone else and possibly do a different program all together. so wish me luck and ill keep you all posted.

Andrea, how exciting. You will do fine.

i just found out that my husband is switching jobs in two weeks which means that i will lose health insurance. so now i wont have coverage for the surgery. the only hope i have is getting cobra but i dont know if i can get it and how much it will cost. i dont know what to do

Andrea,

I'm no insurance expert but as long as you pay your COBRA you will be fine, your coverage should continue without any interuptions or changes. My husband quit his job the same day I found out I was pregnant (surprise!), we kept up the COBRA payments and everything was covered just like we never changed jobs. The most important part is not to let there be even 1 day of lapse of coverage cuz the insurance company will dive into that loophole! Good luck!
