Hi all i am so glad to hear that i am not the only one waiting around! i am so

bad at waiting. actually i think i am moving rather well through this thing and

my problem is i cant sleep for thinking about this all the time, all day and all

night i am just so afraid that i wont get approved by the Ohio Medicaid system.

i had a friend and my father in law that have already had theirs paid by

Medicaid. my friend had less wrong with her and my FIL had more wrong with him

so i am somewhere in the middle. it took me 3 times to find a Dr that was still

taking the Medicaid, and then i had to wait till Aug 6th for the seminar as they

wont schedule you for a consult with the Dr till you go. then i was lucky that

they were scheduling appts that evening and i got one 8 days later. that was

last Thursday. i went to that and she asked a bunch of questions they measured

me all over and looked over my history and then said that i was an excellent

candidate for surgery. So then she says that the lady

that does all the insurance stuff is on vacation till aug 26 so i hope that she

has all my stuff done and sent in by the end of the first week of sept! so i

guess i am moving faster then a lot of people but the denial is what i am afraid

of. nothing im my life is ever easy and i figure this wont be either lol so i

have already begun to work on my appeal. even if i dont need it, it gives me

something to do i guess. i just wish i could think of something else! i go about

my day as usual and all but it is always there! well thanks for listening!
