My Doc asst. said it may take 2-3 weeks to either get the surgery or to get approved. I'm not sure which. I was busy going back to normal. I can't wait until this is NOT the norm.
If anyone out there is questioning if they should try this or not. I gotta tell you it was worth it. Even if I don't get the permanent zapper I at least had a few really good days.
I've seen more times than not......unnecessary waiting due to mis-communication between the Dr office secretary and Insurance personnel.
Call your insurance carrier to verify that they've been contacted by your Dr office. Then call your Dr office just to 'check the status' of your procedure.

Operating Rooms can be VERY busy...... (chime in here Pooh!)
Just make sure you've got an actual 'time slot' with YOUR name on it!

Just wanted to throw this out there because I've seen too many times people waiting in frustration and not getting calls returned, etc etc etc....
Be polite and keep in 'good' with everyone....but don't be afraid to be a 'pest' if you feel you aren't getting any clear answers.

Caring
