getting a hold of my dr office
Jan 31, 2007
Now it is 1/31/07 and I just tried to contact colene over at dr fangs office of course my luck i get the answering machine. i want to know if she has everything that she needs if not so that I can hound the different dr's offices that i have been to so that they can get this stuff together. I will just be glad when I am approved and with a date. hopefully it will be soon. another day anxiously waiting.
6mo supervised diet
Jan 30, 2007
well finally after 6mo of the supervised diet I think that Im finally getting to the point to where the information can all be sent off to the insurance co. You know what really sucks is that my life is basically in the hands of an insurance company to decide if I am sick enough to have this surgery. You know I dont think that I would go thru such an extreme to get this surgery if my life didnt depend on it. Well anyways enough of the negativism its just that I think that its a little much at all the hoops that I am having to jump through. but i will leave it up to the big guy upstairs he will make the decision I guess. I went over to see the lung doctor and he gave me the clearance for surgery but boy there office people what a pain in the butt. But what a wonderful Dr. so everything is finished up except the insurance to approve the surgery so I am totally praying that I get approved I am so ready for my new life to begin..

jumping through hoops
Jan 17, 2007
well today is Jan 17,2007 already. Wow time is just flying by. I have been jumping thru so many hoops since Oct 06. I wish that the hoops thing would be over. I spoke with colene from Dr Fangs office on friday(1/12/07) and she said it looks like things are coming together finally. I have had my consult with dr fang which went well back in October.Then colene explained to me about the phsych evaluation which on the 12th Dr Maxwell said everything was ok just the results showed that I am a real perfectionist. huummm well OKAY! anyhow I spoke with colene on 1/12/07 she said she just needed the diet records from 12/06-2/07 and 16lbs lighter from when I started my supervised diet. I went for my cardiologist clearance doc says im ready to go. and on 1/26/07 for the pulmonolist clearance. and last appt for the supervised diet. and then colene said that she would be able to submit and wait for insurance to approve. wow it seems like there is so much stuff that i have done for this life changing experience. but I have really investigated and I know this what I want to do. So for now anxiously waiting for the answer that seems like is never going to get here:)
