I just got a call from my surgeon office, asking if I completed all my pre-op testing, I just completed my cardiologist visit & chest x-ray yesterday, and I still have 2 more weight managment classes left. She said if I plan on attending the next 2 classes, and I said of course..then she can attempt to make a letter to the insurance due to my compliance to the program to get approval!

I was just reading Slinky 1899 thread about her approval process, and then my cell phone rings at 9:13AM, I normally dont answer phone #'s I dont recognize on my cell but something told me to answer the phone and it was the Dr. Office. I'm so excited & nervous b/c I work for a health insurance company, and I know how hard ass they can be with procedures, but I have faith everything will work itself out.

Best case scenerio is to get scheduled for middle/end of June if approved.
