Hello, my name is laura I just now downloaded this app and I am very excited I finished my 6mo of diet and nutrition, and currently have my sleep apnea review to see if i need a new one.I have to meet the surgeon, and the phyc evaluation that is the one im worried about. Then they said they would go request to my insurance which is health plan select.

I wanted to know if anyone else was as worried as i am I am preatty sure that mentally i am ready for this I spent a year reading and studying this surgery and I work in the medical field with the instruments of this surgery so I know what is going to happen in the o.r but I am terrified of the actual evaluation can anyone please help me to see just examples of what questions they ask you?

You're stressing for no reason. The psyc evaluation is a very informal conversation with a phschologist to determine if you are mentally stable and understand the totality of the procedure. Mine lasted for about 5 minutes and it was a pleasant conversation - not a question/answer session.

You'll be just fine!
