Thanks Nancy and Mickey,
Both of you have given me a lot of knowledge and comfort. June 1st I go to see Andrea (RN) and on the 2nd final appointment w/ Dr. R. Haven't received results from Hematologist but have an appointment the 28th. I am looking forward to surgery but of course all the "what ifs" are dancing around in my head.
Will keep you posted.
Thanks again...

hey there... i have chn...and i am approved for surgery.. they require six months of nutrition counseling, and a slew of other pre op testing... my nutritionist had told me that during the six months they want to see you making some progress,, even if its ten pounds lost.. at the office i go to you first have to finish all pre op testing and the six months of nutrition visits .. and then they send it out to the insurance for apporoval.. after they sent it out it took only one week for the reply. but overall they have been great, havent had any issues. and im having my surgery in a week.. hope you have a good journey..

She went to Dr. Raftopoulous at ST Francis in Hartford. She had to do a few classes but nothing to much for the insurance.

Congratulations! The waiting is hell but you've got less than a month to go. Its exciting and nerve wracking isn't it. My overnight bag was prepped two weeks in advance!
You'll do fine. The odds of zero complications are overwhelmingly in your favor.
