Hi Sil

Have you contacted your insurance company to see what else they require, in addition to the 6 months? Mine required the stress test, EKG and a psych evaluation (that was an extra $200 out of pocket).

Good luck on getting your surgery date soon! I just had mine on Thursday Oct 30 - so far so good!
