Waiting for approval



Recommended Posts

My paperwork has finally been sent to insurance for approval. I have worked so hard to make sure I got everything exactly how the insurance company and surgeons office requested. I'm so anxious waiting, I want an answer so I can get a date! I could use any good thoughts and positive vibes you can spare that I get approved and don't have to wait long to find out!

I found out from my insurance today that I am approved!!!!!!

Thanks for all the good thoughts, I am also sending good thoughts to those others who posted they are waiting.

Now I'm just waiting for a date. My insurance approval said I was approved for an admission date of 5-22, does anyone know if that's just an informal date the surgeons office gives to get approval, or will that be my date?

I'm dying to know!

WOOHOO! High fives all around!!

I think the 5/22 is when your approval is officially begins to be valid, then you have a 6 month window to get it done. I have a different insurance though, so I'm not sure how yours works. I could be completely wrong!

I'm such a huge dork. I want you to go on 5/31 too so we can be surgery buddies! ;)

I would love for it to be on 5/31! I'm keeping my fingers crossed. I still didn't hear from them today, I called and left a message this morning. I'm so frustrated with how slow they move!

      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!

      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!!
