Had my psych eval yesterday and it went great. Only about 45 minutes. She (the counselor) and I chatted about my history, my family, etc. She had already gotten my chart from my doctors, so she already knew my situation. She ended the session by letting me know she was approving me for the surgery and sending her notes to my surgeon that same afternoon.

It was a really easy evaluation. No test of any kind, no hoops to jump through, etc. Just a consultation with a counselor. I couldn't be happier.

My surgeon is on vacation this week, then I am on vacation next week, but I am scheduled to see him again on 10/09 when I get back. I have everything done that I needed to do prior to scheduling my surgery date, so I am confident I will be able to schedule at that appointment. I need 7-day pre-op liquid fast and then surgery.

Yea!
