I was told it'll probably take just 15 minutes but I'm still nervous. Fingers crossed, folks! :780_sparkling_heart:

My psych evaluation is today too! 15 minutes is pretty quick! I wonder how long mines will be. Just think... once we get this done its one less item checked off the list. Good luck! 😊

Good luck, you'll do fine, just be honest and don't be nervous.

Good luck! When you're done, make sure to come back here & share your experience with those who haven't done their psych eval yet!

All done! The psych eval went really well and it was very quick (about 20 minutes), but we had a nice chat. All he asked was how long have I been overweight, are there others in my family with weight issues, do I have other health issues, what have I tried in the past, how do I think surgery will affect my life, stuff like that...other than those things, it was a relatively short, positive conversation. He said after he writes up his report he'll provide the clearance. Woot! Easy peasy.

Edit: I did have a true/false questionnaire that I filled out ahead of time. It was 165 questions. Your surgeon may not use this, but at least it'll give you an idea what you could expect as far as the line of questioning. Here's the file.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
