Cool Waiting ....

I am finally finished doing everything to get approved. The waiting and the anticipation is killing me! The lady in the office says I should know something by the end of the week.

By the end of the week I will know my future (well a part of it) ... strange feeling?! Something that can be so life changing (from what post-ops say) in a week, WOW

Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Every one is rite this time is the longest feeling. I think the days waiting to get approved felt longer than the 5 weeks I have been in post op. The time really flies after. Sometimes I find my self grabbing on to the days to make sure they dont pass by so fast. Make every day before and after count and do the best you can for a healthier life.

Good luck. I'm waiting for my approval too. I have been given a date of Nov 22 and I was told by the surgeon that my insurance shouldn't give me a problem but it's just the final yes I need to hear.

Thanks everyone for your prayers and positivity. I have not heard anything, they sent everything in on Friday. I am hoping to hear something maybe Tuesday or Wednesday but the lady in the office said a week.

This period does seem long, it has only been 1 day. LOL

Question, I think I heard someone say you can see the process of the approval through the insurance website. (I could be wrong) Where would it be? Claims? I have Aetna.

You are in my positive thinking Deb!
