PASSED! Psyc Evaluation

Took only 20 min!!! Super easy and she told me I passed!

Her only concerned is that I need someone more supportive that my husband. She explained support is not only him being ok with the surgery but also him being able to adapt to the changes I'm making. Never thought of it that way.

I just found out she has a support group 2 x a month and thinks I should bring the hubby so he can understand a little better.

Just thought is share ;)

Congratulations!

Congrats! I took my psych eval today too and was approved. Now all I have to do is see my sleep doctor on this upcoming monday and get clearance from him. Then my surgeons office will submit the paper work for approval to the insurance company.

That's great!!! I have another 4 months because of insurance but I'm being patient

My sleep study is what held me up. I ended up being diagnosed with sleep apnea following the test, and had to use the machine for 6 weeks in order for clearance for that. Now I finally get my official date September 18th!!

We will all get there in time. Sometimes patience is a virtue. I wish you all the best on your journey. I'm definitely learning a lot of new things!

My sleep doctor had already scheduled me for a 3 month visit after I went the first time. That c-pap machine definitely works wonders on my sleep.

That's the one thing I started to push on today. I know they want me to do the in home test and depending on that one they will send me out or not. She said there is a list for the machine to take home so I asked her to make sure my name is on there.

Don't want to sleep test to hold me back

Tabbatha - What mask do you use? I use the full face one and its very hard for me to sleep unless I take sleeping meds. My machine goes between ramps 7-9. I would love to find a mask or something that maybe is a bit more comfy. I just had my three month follow up.

I use the one that only goes over your nose and it's really comfortable too. I really like that one. I get 14-16 ramps. My hubby has the full face mask and he doesn't care for it very much. I love mines! :)

Exactly! I don't blame you for not wanting to have that hold you up. There's more than enough to do with the process already.

Reading all these posts about passing the eval immediately after the first meeting has me super worried. I have to do a follow up appointment for additional tests. Hope that's not a bad sign!

I passed mine too I was in the room wit him for not even 15 min. I almost thought I wasn't going to pass because he told me "you have a very confident tone" I was like god I blew it lol.

I think it all depends in the psyc you see and the program you're in. Try not to stress too much over it. I didn't realize I had my appointment with her till 3 days before. Everything is in house so when I have an app with them I see the NUT the doc and that time the psyc.

Every program is different. I got mine through a therapist I saw previously. Some providers robot differently, and some insurances do it differently. Please keep us updated, your in my thoughts!!
