Waiting on approval & scared.
I've completed all the necessary testing and counseling and my package has just been sent to Blue Cross Blue Shield of North Carolina. I am terrified. My BMI is 38.2. Although I've had hypertension for several years I've only been recently diagnosed with diabetes. The only other thing that might help me is having a family member that had a heart attack before 50. I don't just want the surgery; I need it. In addition to hypertension and diabetes I have hidradenitis, need problems and lower back problems. I've told very few people I'm tired of hearing that I just need to hit the gym. They don't understand that there are days so parking is extremely painful. I'm just soliciting prayers and encouragement at the moment. I will keep everyone posted. Thanks
