Whitneymc, I too suffered from depression. I lost my parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and father in law in a short time frame. I was suicidal. I got help from my psychiatrist and am now considered in remission. She did my psych evaluation and it was fine. I would be worried if you didn't address the depression. It could rear its ugly head after the surgery. If you are already in a bad place and have surgery, it might send you further into the black hole.
I have been great for 4 years but I still plan on increasing my psychiatrist visits a little bit after surgery to stay on the right track.
I don't know if you believe in prayer but I will be praying for you!
