What's Next???
I had my consult w/ Dr. Jones 02/25/09 and my appt w the psychologist on 03/05/09.
My insurance policy states that I need 18 months CONSECUTIVE supervised weight visits w/ my doctor. I have 8 of them under my belt and get an email from Amy @ Dr. Jones' office last Friday stating that my insurance policy had ammended that and now only requires 6 months...YAY!!! But, I don't wanna get my hopes up for fear of the insurance company finding some type of loophole to go back to the original 18 month policy.
Soooooooo....I am going to attend my support meetings and make some life changes, but what typically happens now after I have seen the psycho???

"after I have seen the psycho"
We've all seen a psycho today, but I digress.
The insurance company can't go back to the 18 months because Indiana law mandates they can't require more than 6 months.
Attend your support meetings - what should happen next is that you should get a date!! Then you should get info about your pre op testing and your nut class.
And, if you value your monitor, I am probably not the one to ask about what happens at pre op testing!

Thanks for the info.
I have to admit when I first read I felt like the new kid on the block that didn't get the joke. After reading the post... I can now say I appreciate it.
GREAT sense of humor! I don't think it will be that bad... I've had almost all of those test @ one time or another...so I should be OK...NOT saying I'm gonna like it... but it'll be tolerable!!!
So.... you're telling me that I shouldn't ask for salt on my margarita glass since they do not have a sense of humor, eh??? ahahaha!!!! How about the cabana boys bringing me the margarita??? is that acceptable??? LOL!
Did you guys need a driver or were you OK to drive yourself???
thanks
