Greetings! Although I have not yet had my surgery, I have been through much of the prelim. requirements. I had a psych evaluation, appt. w/cardiologist, Upper GI Endoscopy and support group meeting. My only other requirement is the nutrition class which is 4 hours on Tuesday. After that I am all set for surgery on December 7th. I truly dreaded the upper gi endoscopy just because i had never had one. PIECE OF CAKE!. I didn't even feel anything except the pinch for my IV!
Good luck to you,
