I had my pre-op appt. today which I passed with flying colors...woohoo! After that I called my surgeon's office (they are so nice!) to ask them if this was the last step before submitting to the ins. and they said yes. I don't know how it happened so fast but within an hour they called me back to tell me I was approved!! WOOHOO!!!!!!!!

I don't think it's actually sunk in yet though! I have to go in for labs (cbc, etc.) on Monday and then a week from that day is my surgery! Wow!

That's what I thought! I can't believe it! I know they had sent some things in to get the ball rolling but I had no idea how quick it would be. Thanks!!
