Wow.... I have date and its May 12th. My request for surgery was sent in 2 weeks ago and it was approved on April 29th.

Topic: insurance problems
I have been to a seminar at Southwest Medical In Dallas. They told us to contact our
insurance to see if our particular policy covers what their medical policy says they do. i have BCBS of Illinois. They have a medical policy for gastric bypass. i have to see my PCP monthly, for 6 mo. and provide documentation of obesity for last 5 yrs. Also, have psych eval and see dietitian. I have been doing this for the last 2 months. i finally got around to calling BCBS today. They told me that, yes, my policy covers WLS, but they exempt certain codes and obesity and morbid obesity are exempted. Has anyone had this happen. I am so afraid that this will mean no coverage. I have read that denial can be overturned but not an exemption.
Topic: RE: Day 3 of Pre-Op Diet..sigh
I hope you feel better soon! You can do it! I can't speak from experience yet, but it will all be worth it. You are doing a great job so far and is won't be long now. If it's any consolation (maybe it isn't?) but you and me both have probably had enough "last meals" just knowing this was coming up right?... anyway I'm just saying... Good luck with everything. Hopefully someone who has been there will give the proper pep talk. LOL.
Good Luck!

Topic: Home from Surgery
I am in a little pain, coughing a lot, and feeling extremely tired. Surgery went well though. I am so glad I went through with it. Now, I just have to get over the surgery part.
