Topic: RE: Howdy 4.5 years out

Sheesh, so sorry no reply until now! After my psych app it was only about a week or so for BCBS approval. BUT, it depends on which BCBS policy you have. For instance when I worked at the Town of Chapel Hill it was all approved fast with no other requirements. Back at UNC CH, the coverage sucks! It has all sorts of hoops you have to jump and I bet approval takes longer. But I'm not sure.

So happy the process is moving along for you, though. Let me know when you hear and do ask me any questions, complain to me, share milestones with me, etc. But only if you want to do so.

OOOO EEEE, I'm excited for you!

Maggie

I had my psych evaluation on Wednesday and meet with Dr. Sudan yesterday. Do you know how long it takes for bcbs of NC to approve. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Topic: Halifax, Virginia

I am looking for a WLS buddy that lives close to Halifax, Virginia. I had the Duodenal Switch on 11/7/2014. I am struggling with carbs and sweets. It would great to have a buddy or a friend to hang out with that knows what I am going through.

Good morning.  Happy Sunday to y'all..I am 18 days out and feeling good.  I am in the Newport/Morehead City area.  Dr Johnson was my surgeon.  I am trying to make a double ticker for my signature so please bear with me.
