A week ago this time i was laying in pre surgery being prepped for sugery. I was terrified. In just one week I am not needing any diabetes medication or blood pressure meds. I am so glad I did this! I am feeling so good and like a person again. I havent gotten on the scale...I know I came home with fluid on me from the ivs and I will just wait to see what I weigh on June 1st at my follow up appt.  The soreness is finally subsiding from my drain site and I am sleeping more comfortably.

 

I am feeling so many things right now....happy, nervous, excited.....happy!  Thank you to all of you for your thoughts and prayers and well wishes. I am going to need your support the rest of the way!  Surgery is set for May 17th.

So I talked to Aetna today and my case is being reviewed by the medical director......hopefully next week I will know if I am approved or not. I wont have any hair left to lose due to lack of protein after surgery because I will have pulled it all out !!!

Still waiting for Aetna to deem me worthy of weight loss surgery.  My drs office called today saying that Aetna needs more information....just blah blah blah I am so tired of these games the insurance play.  I should know by Friday if I am approved. The surgeon scheduled a date of May 17th --I pray to God with all these health issues I have that I am approved. 

This wait is killing me!  Approve me already Aetna!

I sit and think about just being normal again. All the things I want to do. Just to be able to tie my shoes and shave my legs without it be exhausting!

I sure hope I get a decison this week.

So I got the call yesterday that my sureon  will submit to my insurance today. I feel like I have been holding my breath on this since January. I am so excited and have so may emotions right now. This little voice keeps going in my head " what if they dont approve you?"  I cant think like that -- its finally time for me to take care of me and I cant wait!
