Psych. eval tomorrow...? filling out questionaire



Recommended Posts

Hi!

Hope everything had a nice weekend.

Thinks are starting to move along little by little. I am a little worried about the psych. evaluation.

I am worried about being completely "honest" as far as all the questions.

Wondering how others dealt with this issue.

Be you! Be sure that the phyc eval is done by someone who has a lot of experience in WLS patients.

Good luck I'm sure you'll do great.

Don't worry so much on it. The questions are very repetative and go somewhat like this..

Do you often see people or things other people don't see?

So you hear voices?

Do you sometimes want to hurt yourself or others?

There are questions in there about stealing, anger suicidal thoughts and your options are False, somwhat true, mostly true and Very true. My experience was to go in and take the test, took me about an hour, then I scheduled an appointment with the dr for a week later. I showed up for the appointment which took an hour. 1st off he asked me to tell him about the procedure and what my expectations where. Then he some of my eating background, went over my psyche eval, then gave me two verbal iq test vocabulary and how are these words similar. Don't think about it to much and just be yourself.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
