My insurance only required the psych eval. I was in and out within 2 hours. He asked me a bunch of questions and explained the surgery to me and ask me what my next step would be if the surgery wasn't a success. I answered honestly, and even opened up about past issues that took me down the path of choosing food as a crutch. By the end of the session he was very pleased with the way I presented myself, and told me that I was a perfect canidate for the surgery, and he would be glad to given the recommendation to insurance. The surgery itself didn't cost a penny because of our insurances MH plan. I had to pay for the report alone which was $25 but it was well well worth it... :biggrin0:
