How do I stop myself from getting paranoid about meeting medical necessity

I have my last class before getting all my paperwork submitted to insurance and I am freaking out and over thinking things way too much. I have my psych eval coming up but other than that everything is ready to be faxed to my case manager. I read over the bariatric rider every day making sure I qualify but even then the uncertainty of getting denied after all this time and money dedicated to getting this surgery is too much. Any recommendations on how to disconnect and relax over this entire thing? thank you.

Words on old sign Don't tie yourself up in "nots". don't worry about things not being right. You have done things properly, have the courage of your convictions. Stop worring, start smiling kick back a little and relax. Tensing yourself up serves no useful purpose, sadness only brings wrinkles and indigestion. Rechewing your words, nope start beleving in you, each thing on the requirment list prepares you for your future surgery and you will, in the fullness of time have it occur.

Just relax. If you meet all the requirements and the most important is having a BMI of 40, YOU ARE ALL SET!!! You will get approved!

Remember approval isn't subjective. There shouldn't be any mystery unless you're unsure of requirements or results.
