Got the best possible news today!
My surgeon was going to bat for me regarding putting a little pressure on my Dr. to get my information together to submit to insurance.
If you don’t know the story, see this post about this being the NINTH month of a 6 month supervised diet!!
Three weeks ago, thereabouts, I spoke to the surgeon and she would get the ball rolling. I have been playing phone tag with her office staff for weeks.
I have a long commute so as soon as I got into the car today(and yes, I left her a few messages during the day), and left her a voicemail telling her I was in the car for about an hour and to get back to me if she could. ((Throughout the day each time she called me back I was scrubbed so I couldn't answer the phone. By the time I was able to return the call I would only get her voicemail)).
The office coordinator called me back halfway into my ride home.
I AM SUBMITTED!!
OH MY GOD!! She says the only thing she needs from me is the psych evaluation. She did NOT mention needing the Stress Thallium nor the Venous Duplex….I’m hoping their requirements have changed and they don’t need them.
Timing is a freaking little troublemaker in my life. It is comical, my timing in life. We are to be leaving for SC for two weeks. I will call tomorrow and see if I can squeeze the evaluation in Thursday after work. If not Thursday, as soon as I get home. It’s going to happen. FINALLY!
I was thinking back in July when I was getting nowhere with my PMD that I wanted to wait until September anyway. My surgeons’ team was to start placing the Realize lapband as well as the Lapband. The realize band is the one I want. I like the way the port is anchored. Things happen for a reason.
Oddly, I am nervous. I called my best friend up and told her that next summer will be my summer! I am so happy.
