Taking the final steps !

Jan 31, 2013

On Tuesday I had my 5th out of 6 months of supervised dieting with my primary doctor. It went well. I have my final appointment on February 15th.  My doctor and I will get everything done and put together that my insurance requires for approval.

I have such a busy month ahead of me. February is going to kick my ass ! But if this surgery gets approved then it will defiantly pay.

On the 7th of Feb I have to complete my dietician/psych/exercise physiology clearance. Then if I have enough time left, I will have to swing over to the hospital to have a cardiac clearance done which includes a chest x-ray and thee most dreaded thing of all--- the Arterial Blood Gas test !  I know this will be a pain in the ass- and wrist so I may as well just grin and bear it.

On Feb 11th I have my pulmonary function test to complete. If all goes well I'll receive my clearance. 

Then as I mentioned earlier i'll have my final appointment of my supervised diet on Feb. 15. Hopefully after all this is completed it will not be long until it can be submitted to my insurance company. Then after all that is turned in I will be bitting my nails to the quick waiting for their response.
