Today was an interesting day

It is the day after my hysto and I am doing well. My hand that the IV was in is swollen still. Doesn't hurt but just puffy.

I received a call from a surgeon's office today. The one I submitted my insurance info for approval for a meta. They told me that my insurance said that they would pay contingent upon documentation stating this procedure is medically necessary and why it is medically necessary. They also stated that they will only give approval within 90 days of the procedure so a date has to be set. This makes me happy. Getting the documentation stating surgery is "medically necessary" won't be an issue because between the MH provider and my surgeon I have that covered. My focus now is just trying to get all my ducks in a row. I am VERY happy that it worked out this way. Gives me more time to do what I need to do and shows that insurance is willing to cover surgery without a fight (which I already knew) but this solidifies it.
One of the other surgeons I have been considering has been M.I.A and I found out earlier this week that Perovic died so my plans A through E for lower surgery have to be reworked so to speak. I am still optimistic. I feel like I am on cloud 9 and willing to do what needs to be done in order for me to have my goals reached.

Also I have been having some "sweaty" moments. I don;t know whether this is due to weather changing here (it's been getting warmer) or if it is the beginning of HOT flashes. We shall see.
