I'm Approved - Uhc



Recommended Posts

Hey Folks,

I got my approval letter in the mail yesterday :banana :banana :banana

I cant believe it I'm on my way!!! Now all I have to do is calm down and wait for the doctors office to open so I can ask him what's next.

You all have been so supportive and I tell you I needed that since I've been waiting since Oct. Thank you, thank you , thank you.

Thanks Betty and Marie,

now all I have to do is get that surgery date. I cant wait. Then I'll be bugging you all to help me thru that liquid/soft food stage. Oh well, how does that saying go -- Rome wasnt built overnite.

Tanya,

Congrats! Is your insurance paying for you surgery? Are you going to the Molding Clinic? Sorry to ask so many quesitons, just curious. I am very interested in the procedure. I am just trying to find out if they take insurance. I have UHC.

UHC is going to pay for the surger. I am not going to the Molding Clinic, I dont even know what that is. UHC did take a long time for approval. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Tanya,

how long did UHC take to approve? I called them yesterday, they told me it could take up to 30 days. I am trying to find a doctor in my area, that will accept me. Wish me luck!

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
