I got approved
When I woke from my nap, I learned that I missed a call from my DR. office. Called the call back number and......
BCBS Approved me for
surgery.
I couldn't believe my ears. Shared the news with my husband and needed to get moving. I had the energy to burn. Looked at those puppy eyes standing by my knee. Leashed up the critters the took off for a long walk. We went over 3 miles, I am so excited. I called to scheduling to see what was next. And of course it is Friday and 5 pm. The receptionist I talked to will have a nurse call me back. Not holding out much hope for getting that call today.
As I chatted with the managed care nurse, Lola. I mentioned that I still thought I had 1 dietician visit next week. Lola told me I could skip it, insurance approved without it. I plan to keep the appointment anyway, I do not want to find out when they submit the bill that this last visit would be the difference between paying and not paying for the surgery. I have jumped through so many hoops that I am finishing the requirements.
Anyway, I am excited, did I mention that I am excited???? I am so ready to have my rny. Hopefully I will have news to share during Monday chat.

Thank you everyone, Have "I said I'm so excited"?!!!! I could walk 100 miles, won't, I don't want to pay the pain price for being stupid. Just got back from an errand. The clinic called. Automatic reminder of my diet appointment next week. No further news from scheduling for surgery. Next week I will investigate further.
