I just had my Psych Evaluation, what a joke. The email said to prepare a quiet area for 1 hour. The teleconference was not more than 5 minutes. The therapist said they need the other 55 minutes to write up your report. All she did was ask me questions. I guess it's just a formality.

Mine was also a joke. first, I'd specifically requested to talk with a female, not male, so the female doc shows up with a male intern in tow to do the eval. He was clueless and couldn't keep track of what he'd already asked me. He asked stuff like what town I grew up in, just totally irrelevant stuff. An hour with the hapless, confused, male intern cost over $1700. At the end of the appointment, he kept saying what great rapport we have and I need to come see him more. Totally. Oblivious.

Surgery 12/13. Starting my pre op diet Monday. Going out for pizza Sunday.

Hope you’re all feeling good about your surgery’s
