Psych Eval

Hey everyone! I have my psych eval tomorrow and I'm wondering if any of you have any tips for me. For some reason I'm a little nervous, and I don't really know why.

I was nervous about mine too, but it turned out to be a very positive experience. I filled out a long questionnaire that asked questions on everything about personality, relationships, coping, anger, etc. I then met with the psychologist for about an hour. She evaluated my test answers and we talked about my background, history of weight loss attempts, family/friend support, etc. I hope you have the same kind of experience as I did.

Hi there!!

I just had my Psych Eval done on Friday.

It was so great, I was nervous too!

I thought maybe I wouldn't get clearance, but the Doctor was so friendly, I was totally honest with him. He asked questions, I answered truthfully, and he said ok, great I will print out the report to take with you! Yeah

Good Luck, and keep us updated!

Thanks so much for the info. I'm praying that I have the great experience that both of you did. I will report back. Thanks!

Good NEWS! I was cleared and able to make my final appointment with the surgeon. Now, should I go ahead and schedule a physical with my PCP to include the EKG and blood work that I know will need to be done or do I wait until I'm instructed to do so?

That's great news, Im glad it went well for you!

I think that we just wait until we see our Surgeons, they will tell us where to go, and give orders for labs and EKG. When is your appointment?

It's April 10th. I'm hoping for an early May sleeve date. I don't know if things will work that fast though.

Well, maybe you should call your surgeon's

office and ask them if you should ask your PCP to order the tests, or should you wait until you see the surgeon!
