2/23/07 I finally got ahold of the nurse that sent out the original letter. As I had already known, it was NOT the approval letter. She promised me it went out in Wednesdays mail, I didnt get it today so hopefully by Monday. I am so ready to schedule. As I read the boards daily, I know I am not in this alone and I know the frustrations the others have, but I want to be a LOSER lol hopefully soon. I'm staying positive :)
gotta love insurance

I do find the good in it, its taking a little longer which will push my surgery out a little longer, but on the plus side, the weather will start to break soon and i'll be able to get out and start walking the dogs :)
Happy Friday!
APPROVAL

Anyway, I filled my paperwork out and they sent it to my insurance company UHC. I also scheduled my stress test and I had that on Friday, a bit unpleasant, but I'm here :) lol Now i'm just WAITING! of course I called the insurance company on the 1st of Feb and they said, oh we got your paperwork a couple of days ago, it could take up to 30 days...30 days??? ok, so its not very long, but it seems like an eternity when you finally decide to take this step in your life, you of course want to do it NOW...yesterday even lol hopefully it won't take that long though. When I talked to the people at Barix, they said UHC is pretty quick on there decisions and they were a good company to work with, so lets hope so. I am excited and scared to death all at the same time. I read this site every day, I think i'm addicted lol I have read the memorials as well, my heart just pours out to those families. I needed to read them for me though, I NEED to know the good, the bad, and the ugly of this surgery. Well, enough for now, back to reading! take care
