Approval!!!

Well, I FINALLY got my approval. Robyn told me that UHC would contact by Friday April 30th, I didn't hear from her. Had a busy week last week and didn't get around to calling her back... I remembered to call today. She said she still hadn't heard, so I asked if I should call...She told me it couldn't hurt. So I did, and they told me I had already been approved!!! So I called Robyn back and she told me she'd get back with me today or tomorrow about a surgery date!!!! I'm already getting excited and nervous and prepared! I've got my chewable vitamins and my baby spoons, anyone suggest a good protein source???? WOO HOO! Gina.

Congratulations!!! Lori -55lbs

I got my date today..... June 21st!! I can't wait. Have some tests to do, gallbladder ultrasound, blood work, EKG, chest x-ray, perhaps a sleep study. Then I'll be set! Gina.

Oh Gina, I am so happy for you. I will be praying for you. I'm still waiting on insurance. I guess I'm going to have to change jobs. Who do you have your insurance with? United isn't it? Through a company or what? Who is doing your surgery? Keep us posted on your progress. Robbin

Gina: Congratulations to you!!! I got approved May 5 and will have my surgery on August 16, 2004. Which Doc are you using and where are you having your surgery!! Jacque AUGUST 16, 2004

Congrats!!! You are in good hands. Dr Walton is the best. Give Robyn a hug for me next time you go in!!
