Psych eval question!



Recommended Posts

Did everyone else get papers to sign to release all their medical records in the big questionnaire and packet from the psychiatrist? Just wondering if that’s the norm.

I didn't have any of that, no questionnaire at all.

I just had a single half hour face to face chat. (It was really one of the easier visits, so far, for me.)

Sounds like they are more through where you are, which isn't all bad. Hang in there!

Nope, just a half hour 1:1 talk

Yea... I’m thinking this seems a bit much? Especially releasing my entire hospital medical history. I think I’m going to find someone else! I mean... I’m not perfect, but I feel like right off the bat, this guy seems to want to really try to dig hard in finding something lol

I had a questionnaire and I’m sure she had access to my medical records. However, it was just a 50 minute 1:1 therapy session and then she said I need a letter from my psychiatrist to say he treats me and will continue to treat me. That was kind of ridiculous since insurance sees that I take my meds and see him monthly 🙄

I haven't had mine yet but I spoke with the psychologist that I will have my appointment with and it's an hour long with 3 questionnaires, one of them consisting of 175 true/false questions.

I actually made an apt with a difference psychologist for next week as well and she explained it will be something similar to that as well. Just a few forms and a face to face which seems better to me.

I didn't have any questionnaires or anything like that to fill out or papers to sign.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
