so it's been 1 week and 1 day since my doctor's office got my approval. i was told they would call me by fri of last week to set a date and i still haven't heard anything. i called on wed and just left a message stating that i am sure they were busy.. but i just wanted to touch base. i am trying to just be patient because i do know that they are busy, and i don't want to be a burden. grrr.. maybe i need to take up a new hobby to take my mind off of waiting. well i just needed to vent.. so thanks for letting me get things off of my chest.

Well I didn't have to go through that, but my suggestion would be KEEP CALLING! You don't want to be a pain in the arse, of course, but you don't want to be a church mouse, either. Let 'em know you're approved, you're ready, and you want to get the ball rolling! If you can do so AND be polite about it? They're BOUND to set you up!

Juliana,

I agree with Darla......Call them and talk to a person, maybe for some reason they didn't get your message......If your all okayed by Insurance don't let the Doctors office hold you up....This is your health were talking about.......

Keep us posted. See you Sunday for coffee.
