I CAN'T BELIEVE IT....

Dec 15, 2011

GREETINGS FAMILIA,
   Today was supposed to be my last appt with my PA and I got there feeling pretty darn gud. I was weighed in by the nurse, who is super sweet. And I was excited because there are quite a number of things going on
  this week. But I will get to that in a moment, anyway... I have been working out with my trainer and I did lose 4lbs. Now that is not a lot but I will take it because Im losing inches, my clothes are fitting differently and Im toning! Okay, okay wait a minute I'm getting off track.
   In any case, the nurse congratulated me on my progress and I said " well, today is my last appt with Candace" and she said " NO, YOU HAVE ONE MORE" What??Excuse Me, what are you talking about??? Now, I can tell you that ATTITUDE WAS BUILDING...I tried to stay calm, afterall this was not her decision. But I'm thinking WHAT THE *^%! ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? So she explains to me that last month they were advised from the insurance company that the first appt is considered a consultation and your second appt begins the 6 mo diet. I'm telling you fam, I'M PISSED!
   First of all, I was advised I did not have to do the 6 mo visits with the PA, then I do, I accepted that with grace, because it is what it is. But this was too much, now when I got in the room with the PA I decided to try and calm down when she explained that they were not aware of this either until claims were returned. Okay, again I will do what I have to, besides I like her so I guess it's not so bad.
   THEN IT HAPPENED...6:18PM....I'm on the phone with Daddy (I don't mean my father) LOLand the phone rings, I look at it and it says SEB. I'm thinking why am I getting a call from them after hours? Okay, I answer and it's one of the coordinators to review the next step. She begins to advise me about the final appt and I'm okay with that because once I was made aware of it, I scheduled it today for next month. Then she tells me the insurance company is also requestind weight history from the last 5 yrs.... WHAT??? This is ridiculous , I don't have this mess. She said they have records from 2010 and 2011... But I will need to submit records from 2007-2009. First of all I think this is crazy, who the hell cares what I weighed 5 yrs ago? I'm fat now daggonit! I said okay what happens if I can't find records from the other years? Number one we have three homes, one here in NC, one in Fla and another in PA. How am I supposed to remember when I went to the doctor and what state we were in. Okay, okay...I am being a bit dramatic  because I know if I thought about it, I could get the information but I AM ANNOYED!
   I'm wondering if this is a sign for me not to do this? God knows I want to but did anyone else have all these obstacles? My honey says, just get the information and whether it's in Jan or Feb at least you know it wil happen. He is always so encouraging which is why I love him so...But I'm still annoyed. So, I sat down and thought about where I was and which doctors I saw. I have written down the doctors and hospitals I visited and I also located addresses and phone numbers as well as fax numbers. So in the morning I have to get busy, one way or another it's going to happen. Sometimes it seems as though the things we want the most are so hard to accomplish. I guess it is always as they say...ANYTHING WORTH HAVING IS WORTH THE WORK! Well, I have decided that it is out of my control and I will do what is asked of me. I was also advised by the coordinator that Dr Voellinger has 27 approved files on his desk which means I would be looking at not having the surgery in January as it was anticipated. I am now hoping it will be done at least by the end of February or it could be March....UGH, I'm getting annoyed thinking of it because I have so much going on in 2012, the wedding which is in Aug., and I have BIG NEWS TO ANNOUNCE .... I am just waiting for the final strings to be tied... IT'S HUGE, SO STAY TUNED....Well, I have rant and raved enough for one night, I will be back soon..
