urban*decay started following Getting Excited! Had my initial consultation Tuesday, Submitted my paperwork! and Psych Eval today

My surgeon's office submitted my paperwork to my insurance (BCBS Federal) on 5/21. Now the waiting game happens! Tomorrow marks one week and the surgeon's office told me to check with BCBS at two weeks. Thoughts and prayers would be SO appreciated! I need all the good vibes I can get! I'm sooooo nervous!

Psych Eval today

Thank you to everyone for your responses! I feel a lot better going into this now. The Laughing Cat - Thanks for the detailed summary and for typing that all out for me! I really appreciate it. Hopefully my appointment will go like that because that sounds very constructive and beneficial. -
Have my psychological evaluation today at 1 and I'm nervous! What kind of questions should I expect?

Getting Excited! Had my initial consultation Tuesday
urban*decay posted a topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
I had my inital consultation with my surgeon on Tuesday. I was convinced I was going to choose gastric bypass but he actually said he'd recommend the sleeve. I was surprised but sort of relieved, too. My GP had suggested the sleeve so now I have two doctors telling me the same thing. I have to have my nutritional counseling, which I'll do on 4/3. My second medically-supervised weight loss meeting with my GP will be 4/28. My H Pylori test will also be on the 28th. I have to have my psychological evaluation and that hasn't been scheduled yet. My surgeon said if everything goes well with the insurance pre-approval, I could be having surgery mid-MAY!!!! However, my mom is getting married on 5/31. Since she will be my primary caregiver after surgery, I feel like I can't ask her to take care of me the two weeks before her wedding. I guess I'll wait until she gets back from her honeymoon, so maybe I can be having surgery the 2nd week of June. Please keep your fingers crossed that my insurance approves my procedure!!! -

I just scheduled my initial consultation with the surgeon for 3/25! I'm excited! I have an appointment with my GP on 3/26 to talk about my medically-supervised weight loss, as required by insurance. Anyway, it's a little thing but I'm really excited - it's the first step!

I'm sorry to hear that. What an unfortunate situation. I hope you can do what's best for you and your children, whatever that might be.
