Woo-Hoo Approved!!

I just talked with my insurance company, BCBS Blue Access and I've been approved for surgery!!! Bless their hearts for being patient with me, I've been calling almost daily to see if a decision had been made - didn't want to wait to receive the letter!~

Now my doctor's office will verify I've jumped all the hurdles then will schedule me for an appointment to schedule surgery. YEAAHHHH!!!! I'm hoping to have surgery in March.:bananalama:

    Thanks for all the congrats and encouragement. Within an hour of posting I was scheduled for surgery March 10th. They asked if I was interested in Feb 17 or 24, but I need to wait til the 10th so I have the time off I need. I still can't believe I'm finally scheduled - I'm so anxious to get my band and get healthier!
