    Default Approval for Surgery today!

    Well i was beginning to have serious doubts and really wondering if having gastric sleeve surgery was the right thing to do. The process of orgsnising appts and dealing with nasty medical receptionist has had me feeling really low, the surgeon had absolutely no interest in me as a person. Today i received approval today to have my superannuation released to pay the gap fees. It finally feels like i have made the right decision, the decision to take control of my life and my health, for a new beginning.
    Now to wait on my surgery date.

    Hope you get a date soon. I'm sorry your are dealing with nasty medical staff. If they provide a survey after make sure to fill it out express your opinion about them.
