Ok, I know....Just like everyone else!
I am so frustrated waiting for final approval and surgery date. Just wanted to say it outloud!

I know what you mean, Linda! It's so hard to wait when you've come this far! Your surgery date will get here soon! Hang in there and remember to enjoy that BIG bite of burger because the tiny bites just aren't as good!

It will happen soon sweetie. I know how hard it is to try and be patient (not a strong suit fo me!) but it is going to happen! Keep your head up and know that this time next year you will be a big loser!!! Big hugs to you.

Hang in there Linda, I know you've heard it a million times but it'll happen soon! After I finished all my tests and labwork I thought I would NEVER get a reply, the wait was horrible!

Linda,
Waiting sucks. Call them (your insurance) for the status of your pre-certification. I checked with my insurance. I am so glad I did. My physicians office faxed my information to them on a wednesday. I called monday, it turns out they only got pages 8-12. They thought I was asking for a consultation. The ins co rep was kind enough to call and get pages 1-7. I was lucky. They authorized it that day. Good Luck.
32 days to go....

It'll happen
Isn't the waiting awful? You sound like a take charge kind of person like me. I hate to wait on others, it feels so powerless...
It has finally happened for me, however!! I spoke with Lisa at Dr. P's office a little while ago and she is scheduling me as we speak. (I type?) Of course, take charge me (pushy, maybe?) wants to have as early a date as possible. We'll see.
But, it'll happen, it'll happen!! Hang in there!
