Hi everyone Id like to start off by saying how great I think these forums are. I was so skeptical when my mom introduced the idea of having 85% of my stomach removed, but this website helped me realize that if this many people can undergo the procedure, then so can I! My name is Sam and I just turned 18 on July 12th. Because of my age we had to wait for me to be at least 18 before I could have a psych evaluation or a nutritionist visit. My preop appointment is July 22nd. The reason I am posting is because I am upset with the outcome of my psych appointment. My doctor was very quick to diagnose me with anxiety... But did nothing about it? No prescriptions, no scheduling further visits.. She then proceeded to tell me that because of my anxiety and how I "cope through eating" that I could not have my surgery on the planned July 30th date. The reason I am in such a rush is because not only do I need to get healthy, but I am starting my freshman year of college on August 25th where I will be living away. She said that I could get it during Xmas break but I am very upset by this. I don't feel like she really tried to connect with me as we only talked for 30 minutes. SO ANYWAYS, my question is that if I were to get a second opinion, would my doctor honor it? Or would he only listen to what the first doctor had to say? Please if anyone has any ideas or comments on my circumstances I would LOVE your input Xox Sam
