I have a few updates. I called my contact at SS Disability a couple of days ago because I had not received any confirmation that I had been accepted for SS Disability. He told me that actually my case was still being reviewed and he didn't know why Medicaid was given word that I was deemed disabled. Well today I received a check for 5 months of back pay (when I originally applied) so unless the government likes to just send large checks to citizens for the heck of it I would say that I was approved and my contact had not been given the news.
I got paperwork from Medicaid. You have to re-apply every six calendar months so even though I was approved in late December I have to re-apply for the coming 6 months. You just have to love it...lol.
I got an e-mail from Duke letting me know I have an appointment on 2-21...location...cath lab. My surgeon told me they would do the cath the day before surgery. No one from his office called me but I am guessing that my surgery may be on 2-22. I do not have that confirmed yet.
That's it for now. I will confirm the surgery date when I talk to their office. I called this afternoon and got the answering service.
