OMG!! It's less than 2 weeks away!!!!
I am hoping to hear about the ins approval today too!! That would be lovely!!! They told me my ins co is usually pretty quick & they dom't expect any probelms!! I am trying not to think about it... let them worry about it right now!!! I had my pre-op clearance w/ my pcp on oct 3rd & my tests were this past Monday. I just have my last test on the 15th (the hematologist wants another ultrasound prior to the surgery just to be on the safe side!!). I can't wait until I am done with the running around!!! Good luck to you with your appts & approval!! Keep me posted!!!

I had my pre-op appt. today which I passed with flying colors...woohoo! After that I called my surgeon's office (they are so nice!) to ask them if this was the last step before submitting to the ins. and they said yes. I don't know how it happened so fast but within an hour they called me back to tell me I was approved!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!! 

I don't think it's actually sunk in yet though! I have to go in for labs (cbc, etc.) on Monday and then a week from that day is my surgery!
Wow!
It's really hard not to think about it, Cece, but you will be fine! Keep me posted, too!
Cece,
Congrats on your surgery!!! You're in the same boat as me, I have two weeks left and have my pre-op testing next week. It's like Christmas is coming and the presents are right in front of us .. nows the time to take off the wrappers and start living!!! I wish you all the success in the world on your journey. Have a safe and happy banding!!!!
