Jessica H Did she make you have a sleep study and then require a Cpap machine even if you didn't need it?

Dr Hawver made you have a Cpap machine even though you passed the sleep study?

Did you go to her Washington or O'Fallon location?

She has a hang up about Capp machines bc one of her patients was suppose to have one but didn't tell her and he wound up in ICU Did she make you have a sleep study prior to surgery? Did you like her otherwise?

Thank you I feel very confident with Dr Hawver, she's with Mercy Bariatrics in Washington which is a center of excellence as well

Have you heard if Dr Hawver in Washington?

Wonderful How are you doing? What was your process to get to surgery?

River girl, have u been sleeved? If so who dild u use? I'm in Rolla going with Dr Hawver in Washington

Jessica H, who was your surgeon through Mercy? I'm going with Dr Hawver in Washington

I would love a female mentor/buddy in MO

Trust me my mind is made up, I'm just looking at the magnitude if the decusion

Wow ok thx, that helps. Did you ever get scared prior to surgery and question yourself that you're making the right decision?

It's a great program

That's so wonderful!! My husband is nervous, I've had a great deal of health problems ( benign Braiin tumor, AVM, stroke) so needless to say, I've been through alot and he's worried and I can't blame him, but I need to do this for me and I intend to get my life back in track

I'm so glad your journey has been good!! Do you have a supportive spouse or partner? My husband isn't crazy about this idea but he's coming around... slowly makes sense about the psych eval, my nurse coordinator said they are looking for diagnosis of depression etc, if which I have none, so I'm not stressing about it

Wis4me I love your name, first Where did you have surgery? My story in a nutshell: I'm at the very beginning of my preop tasks I have to have done, I saw my PCP today and got my green light clearance from her. I'm new to this forum so still trying to make myself comfy with how it works here At this point I'm hoping for the end if Jan or early Feb date. I saw my surgeon on Nov 27 and she put me on a 1200 calorie Hugh protein/ low carb diet and so far I'm down 12lbs and hoping not to gain over the holidays Any advice for the psych eval?

Ok, thx good to know

My gallbladder was laproscopic

Was the pain similar to pain from a Csections? How was your psych eval?

So happy to hear you are doing well!! Where did you have the surgery? I've had 2 Csections and my gallbladder out, so I'm hoping that prepares me for mine, plus I'm a stomach sleeper, so I'm in trouble there

Thank you all I've decided what will be will be, I will just be myself and be honest

Were they multiple choice answers or essay? Should I study?

Wow ok, did you have any complications? Any regrets?

Did you have a written part? This helps ease my anxiety thx!

Wow that sounds untense
