I have all my requirements done but mental health! Drs. office forgot to send paperwork to them so still waiting for appts! I have heard a lot of different stories about the evaluation and was wondering what it consisted of. I have no mental health issues so I hope I do fine!

Took my 565 question t or f test and go this Thursday for the results of that! Then just have to wait for surgeon to contact me with appt. Does anyone know if they usually schedule surgery date before insurance is approved? I have heard a few on here say they had date before approval! Was just wondering' date=' getting anxious to get this done! [/quote']

It's probably based on your surgeon but once I complete my requirements I get a tentative surgery date so my doc can get approval for surgery and precert for hospital stay. Once insurance approves I start my pre-op tests and my surgeon said if I get those done sooner than later they can play with the surgery date so I don't have so long to wait. Will be done my 6 month diet November 1st and praying for a 2013 surgery since my deductible will be met already!

I had the RNY surgery done 8 weeks ago. I am down 40 pounds, off all my previous medications (blood pressure and diabetes). I am having problems with my blood sugar being to high. I am not eating carbs. Anyone have similar problems?

Passed my Tor F test!!!! Now I have to wait about a week and call my surgeon so I can set up an appt. to get my surgery date! Finally finished all my requirements!!

Good for you!

Regarding the MMPI Test - It is a lot of repeat questions asked in different ways like: I drink alcohol every day. And. I drink more than 10 alcoholic beverages a week. It also asks what seem like kind of silly questions like: I would like to be a librarian. It's not hard. Just answer honestly. I just got the results of mine yesterday and its interesting how much it reveals about you. By the way - I passed with flying colors - nutritionist on Wednesday, then it goes to insurance. ALMOST THERE!!
