    The co-morbidities should put you over. When you get your psych eval be careful what you say.

    What do we need to look out for during the psych eval?

    Good for you! I have my consult on Friday. I went to my surgeon's seminar last week and I have a sleep study scheduled for Thursday night. I also have high b.p. & diabetes type 2. I hope my insurance will be good to me too. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield.
