My Psychological Evaluation



Recommended Posts

I had my psych eval back in May and i too was completely honest about everything. Although im not too much of a binge eater i have very low self esteem(due to my weight gain). I suffered physical and mental abuse very quite some time from my partner and i yet to get over it not to mention other things in my past. Needless to say she diagnosed me with severe anxiety and depression that very day and after about 5 days of seeing her she called me with my results and said that my depression and anxiety was of the charts and that im so depressed i dont even realize how bad it is. She told me that she realizes it is my past and that she would go ahead and give me the ok for surgery bit wants me to see a psych at the very least once a wk. Dont get discourged because i did and look at me, as of this past Sunday i have been approved for my surgery!!! Greatest news i have received since '07 when i found out i was pregnant... I wish you the very best and remember not to stress on the small things it will all fall in place. Good luck tk you and keep us updated!

I am to see my phsyc Aug. 20. I wanted to see one closer to where I live but my surgeon refused, he wanted me to see a phsyc that was familiar with bariatrics. I'm worried about seeing her, the procedure,(since I've read some are still in the hospital after their designated time) and the Hair loss. I have read that some had intense pain. I know some have lower or higher pain levels but why are they staying in the hospital longer. I'm supposed to stay over one night. The phsyc is my last step before getting my date. I know I'm rambling but I've been working on this since May and now it's nearly time and I'm lil worried. Also, did anyone have to take a test from their Nuts before the surgeon would do the sleeve on you, I did and had to pass with a 90. Thank goodness I passed. Any help or words of wisdom would be appreciated. O Has anyone used Care Credit? My insurance isn't paying for mine. Thank you, Tina

You will be ok. Don't worry . Your body is different from the next person. Say a little prayer.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
