What Medical Tests Have You Had?

I know a lot depends on the surgeon and pre-existing conditions but I am curious to hear what medical tests you have been required to take to get cleared for surgery? Thanks!!

I had my last psyc eval Thursday. I was so nervous. At the end I asked her if I passed and she said as far as she was concerned I had. That's good, right?

EKG stress test eval & nutritionist. I'm thinking now Lolz.. Oh endoscopy also & eval

Psych eval, nutrition eval, pulmonary consult with sleep studies, upper endoscopy, stress test, sonogram of abdomen to rule out gallstones, extensive blood work, and I think that's it.

Great thanks!! It's weird how different it all is.

I have to be on a six month supervised diet and have a psych eval.

The nurse was very surprised that is all I need.
