SO I didn't receive a response back from my surgeon's office for three weeks after having the psych clearance over. Finally was able to call them today and my advocate said she didn't have paperwork from my primary care, no recommendation letter and none of the last 6 years of medical records... I told her she better check again because I sent her a PDF file from the MTF's I've been to with 6 years of weight issues documented and my primary care sent in the referral. I know I won't get a letter of rec from him because he's a jerk and thinks I'm overweight because I overeat at every meal. Honestly, he's horrendous but with my insurance, I don't have time to change providers and wait another 3 months...advocate found the email of my medical records, said she'd read through them (277pages plus) and that I don't need pulmonary or cardiac clearance
my 201 class, the class right before surgery, is scheduled for Tuesday the 7th 
so excited it's getting closer! I also just found out I have insurance until at least September! 
woohoo! I thought that would run out on April 30! Anyone else have to go through something similar at Bridges Center in phoenix, Az?
