Just me complaining again

Well I just added to my post today is Friday March 27,2009 and my case is still pending. I am sorry to complain all the time but I just don't understand, I have been Morbidly obese since actually 2003 , I  have high blood pressure, I have to take a pill to slow my heart down (because of obesity), I have chronic back pain because of obesity that will lead to more surgeries if I don't lose the weight. And for those of you that don't know back surgery HURTS!!!!!!!!I don't want to have to go thru that again. My cholesterol is terrible,I'm on meds for it but its still a little high. And not long ago I found out I have spinal steno sis and I am developing RA, and I  have hypothyroidism which is currently under control. Honestly, I think my doc needs to take me out and shoot me like a broken down horse. (LOL) I have to laugh so I wont cry. I just want to start with wls and that would solve a whole lot of my problems. Then move on to my next problem. Well all I can do is pray that Blue Care Tenn Care will understand what a blessing this will be for me and finally approve me. I am so sorry to be complaining 24/7 I just don't understand whats the hold up. Thanks for listening. 

                                                                          

Sonya,
I know how you feel.  I think all of my posts have most been me complaining about something.  We will both get through this.  I'm sure your insurance company is like mine and is just wanting to postpone it as long as possible, even if they'd save money by giving us the surgery.  Don't give up the fight, it'll happen for you when it is time.  At least, that's what I keep trying to tell myself.  Have a good day.

Yes its torture to have to wait so long when you clearly qualify for the surgery. Im sorry your having to go through this too.

Hey at least we understand, so complain away.  I'd like to think that's part of the purpose of these boards...  A place to vent with those who truly understand.  My husband was so worried about things, I hated to complain around him.  Also, I knew if someone didn't want to "listen" they could just scroll on down or block me.  Gotta love the internet for some things!

In the meantime, I still got you in my prayers, Sonya, and you know you can PM me anytime.

YOU ARE SO GREAT....YOU ARE HELPING ME SOOO MUCH AND I THANK YOU.

Sonya,
I'm really sorry you haven't heard anything yet. I can only imagine how frustrated you are. I was patient for about a week because that was the time I was told it usually takes for approval. After the week was up, I was beside myself wondering what was going on. Fortunately, I only had to wait a few extra days. I really hope it is a good sign that they are still deliberating. Please let us know as soon as you hear something. We are pulling for you.

Yeah I dont understand at all whats going on. I know they will have to tell me something by Thursday April the 2nd thats 30 days and Heather from Dr.Olsens office said they have 30 days to let me know something. So I am pretty sure I will know something then then I will have to wait another couple of weeks for them to settle on  price I hear. Did you have to wait a long time for them to settle on a price? Well all I would love right now is for them to tell me I am approved that would hold me over just knowing I am going to get to have the surgery....
