The waiting game!!

Jan 31, 2012

So, the nurse just called me and told me that she did receive everything she needed and gave my chart to the insurance person and I'm being submitted for insurance approval as we speak!

I'm freakin' out, man! (You are freaking out. Man.)

I know, I know, I know that I've met all the criteria. I know this. And yet.....I'm still so worried that I won't be approved. I've had to fight insurance companies so many times on the doctor side of things that should have been easy that I guess I'm jaded where they are concerned. I believe, though, that since my husband's plan is self-funded that that will give me an edge. You know, if it comes to appeal. Which it won't. Because I've got this in the bag. But I wouldn't be me if I didn't borrow trouble. It's my thing.

I had to check myself after getting that call. I had the immediate "I just got exciting news and I'm nervous so I should go eat something" feeling. I was in the kitchen before I realized that I had just eaten lunch. I am not hungry. I'm glad I stopped before I grabbed something to eat. Even if I grabbed something healthy, which is likely with the current selection in my pantry, I do not want to continue viewing food as a reward or punishment. That's part of the reason I'm here, folks. So, I'm definitely going to have to work on the "head hunger". And it's a good thing that I'm still seeing the psychologist. She has been very helpful with this.

Well, I guess that's all I've got for right now. I'll be on edge until I get the call saying yay or nay. Wish me luck!!!
