For the past two days I have done nothing but call my surgeons office to speak with Ann the patient coordinator. She does not return my phone calls, after leaving messages for her to call me. I even emailed her. I called the front office spoke to Nicole and she gave me the same excuse twice, "she will call you when she learns more info". Finally today I had it. I told Nicole the proper thing is to call someone back and explain so I don't have to continue to call your office. I finally called marilynn who handles the insurance etc. She was trying to push the insurance through. I told her you got my check, I told you on Friday I wanted to proceed, and if the insurance covers this bonus. She again repeated what I thought was taken care of on Friday. She told me now Ann will be calling me tomorrow. I now need to leave my cell phone on another day at work waiting for a call. I have spent the past two days sick to my stomach waiting for this surgery date!!! I went to a support group and it was good to hear about have the VG or VS vertical sleeve etc.I have my pysch exam on Thursday. I am not sure how to feel about getting a surgery date, excited and terrified all at the same time.

Today I talked to Marilynn with Dr. Cirangle office. She got my check today. She also got the info from my primary care DR. She said I may get some money back if they go through and approve it. Regardless I will be a self pay patient. I read the deceased patient area today. I am a little afraid. I am also afraid of dehydration or how I am going to do after surgery. Will I be in a lot of pain? I should get a call from Ann on Monday for a surgery date. I think I am going to puke. I have no idea why I am so nervous. I just want to get the surgery done and over with. My mother n law said that this surgery will change me and my husband for the next year and it will be hard on us. I am not sure how to take that.... I know I am going to change, but I think it will enhance our relationship. He is wonderful and I have two beautiful children 4 yrs old and 10 months old. I just want to be healthy and feel good in my own skin for myself and my husband. I really hope I can get a surgery date soon. My nerves are killing me
