Approved Surgery 8/11!!!!!!!!!!!

I found out Monday mid day that I was approved with only one small problem on Friday before that Monday.  Aetna needed more details about my 3 month nutritional consultations; Monday, with in hours they called me with the approval.  Surgery date 8/11 at 7:00AM.  I cried, was terrified, excited all the emotions rolled up in big emotional ball.  I have settled down now and am trying to be prepared.  Thanks for the support I received here...I have read all the messages and it helped me with a lot of my questions...I am sure i will have more.  Sincerely, Nancygp

Congrats! I have a coworker who has tried to get approved through Aetna and been denied a few times (don't know all the details with her, though, although you think she would be approved, considering her BMI, comorbidities, etc., are all worse than mine were pre-op ... but then I had Blue Cross)

Relax and enjoy the ride. It's a wonderful journey.

Congratulations ans wishing you total success!

Nancy,

Since I've been busy I just saw your post, but the feelings you are having are a part of the roller coaster ride that WLS is. . .  rest assured, most of us have experienced them.  So congratulations on getting a date and I'll look forward to hearing all about your journey as it unfolds.

Hugs, Laureen
