Hi from Ohio.. Insurance question

I have United and just had paperwork submitted a few days ago and was wondering how long it took others to get approval. I am so excited and nervous at the same time and find myself being a little impatient

Still waiting on insurance approval

    I have United Healthcare and it took less than two weeks to get a reply after all requested docs (from UH) were received.

    How was the surgery? How are you feeling? Any input on what to take to the hospital? Any pain?

    Surgery was surprisingly not bad. On a scale fo 1 to 10 my pain was a about 3. I wore loose clothes and no jewlery of any sort to the hospital. I was only in recovery 2 hours after surgery and then was sent home. Yesterday (4 days post op) was my worst (and only bad) day so far. I had dry heaves and gas pains from the surgery. I used Gas-X and a heating pad to help releive the gas pain. This morning I feel like a new woman ... hoping the gas pains are finally gone for good.
