I'm APPROVED!!!!!

Feb 12, 2009

Well I went yesterday for my initial consult with Dr. H. It went rather well. I brought in records from an appt July of last year from a specialty clinic in Iowa where I had them check and see if my issue was for sure just my thyroid. It was, but at the same time. But it gave enough history, Margie thought, of high blood pressure to give me the diagnosis. So she sent it off to Tri-West and told me I should hear within 24 - 48 hours.

I thought for sure I wouldnt hear anything before Monday. But when I got home today I had a message on my phone from a Tri West nurse. I of course didnt make it home in time to call her. But had signed up for the website to check approvals and authorizations and such. So I jumped on my email, hoping to find good news. Well sure enough there it was in black and white. APPROVED. I am happy and scared to death all at the same time. Surgery scares me, I know I will be fine. this will be my 4 laproscopic procedure, 1 was just to investigate stomach pain when I was in my early 20's. The other was to get my tubes tied after my daughter was born. And my last one was to have my appendix removed. All went well, but still nervous.

So now I know I need to get into a support group and am looking forward to meeting the ladies in my area here on the 28th. Thanks for inviting me. Can't wait to meet you all!!

Have a great weekend!!!
