Hey Joe, I completely understand!!! I am a kaiser member also, and I know how long the process takes. The name of the game is patience!!! You need lots of it, but the outcome will be great!! It's VERY frustrating and nerve racking, although you can use this time to really start planning all the little things, like researching what supplies you'll need before and after surgery. Also, now is a great time to start or continue excersing. Walk as much as you can...build your strength up. Before you know it, you'll be approved, have your surgery consult and have surgery..it will go fast... Best of luck to you and congratulations on a very hard decision you have made to get healthy!!! Aimee
