WELL SURGERY IS TOMORROW. THE NERVES STILL HAVEN'T KICKED IN. I'M SURE I WILL BE NERVOUS IN THE MORNING ON MY WAY TO THE HOSPITAL. I WILL UPDATE AND LET EVERYONE KNOW HOW THINGS WENT.....

APPROVED!!!! I AM APPROVED. MY INSURANCE APPROVED ME IN LESS THAN FOUR HOURS. I CANNOT BELIEVE IT!!! NOW I JUST HAVE TO WAIT 2-3 BUSINESS DAYS FOR THE COORDINATOR AT THE HOSPITAL TO CALL ME TO SCHEDULE MY PREOP TESTING!! I CANNOT WAIT!! HOPEFULLY I WILL BE A LOSER WITHIN THE NEXT TWO WEEKS.

I MET MY SURGEON TODAY. HE IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED WITH EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM. HE IS STRAIGHT FOWARD YET COMPASSIONATE. HE SEEMS TO REALLY HAVE THE PATIENTS BEST INTEREST IN MIND AT ALL TIMES. HE SAID I AM A VERY GOOD CANDIDATE FOR SURGERY AND SHOULD BE HAVING SURGERY BY THE SECOND OR THIRD WEEK IN APRIL. I AM SO HAPPY. THAT IS EXACTLY WHEN I WAS HOPING TO HAVE THE SURGERY DONE. NOW I JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR INSURANCE APPROVAL; WHICH SHOULDNT BE TOO BIG OF A DEAL. MY INSURANCE IS QUITE EASY TO GET APPROVED WITH AND I MEET ALL THEIR CRITERIA. I SHOULD HAVE MY APRROVAL BY NEXT WEEK OR AT THE LATEST THE WEEK AFTER.  I'LL KEEP Y'ALL UPDATED!

SO I WENT TO MY PRIMARY CARE MANAGER TODAY. HE HAD NO PROBLEM GIVING ME A REFERRAL FOR SURGERY. I HAD MY RECORDS FAXED FROM MY PREVIOUS DOCTOR JUST SO HE COULD SEE THAT I HAD BEEN APPROVED BEFORE AND HAVE BEEN OBESE FOR SEVERAL YEARS. THE DOC TOLD ME THAT I DIDNT HAVE TO DO THAT; THAT JUST TELLING HIM WOULD HAVE BEEN FINE, BUT I FIGURE "BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY". HE ALSO PUT IN THE REFERRAL FOR THE PSYCH EVAL AND THE NUTRITIONAL CONSULT, TO HELP SPEED THINGS UP. I LOVE MY PCM!!!!!! HE IS ABSOLUTELY WONDERFUL. TOO BAD MORE DOCS ARENT LIKE HIM!! I ALSO GOT A REFILL ON MY BIRTH CONTROL SO I DONT END UP PREGNANT (I DO WANT ANOTHER BABY EVENTUALLY BUT I WANT TO BE HEALTHY MORE). I WILL KEEP YA'S UPDATED AS THINGS MOVE ALONG.
