Good morning all! I am new around here and I've just started the process for Bariatric Surgery - my initial consult is October 10th. I have lots of questions for my surgeon but I was wondering what the experience has been for anyone on antidepressants... was there any obstacles as far as being approved for the surgery? Thank you

Juniper, what surgery are you having? My date is February 6th as well! -
Lol ... I guess it’s important to be responsible huh? What have you told your employer you’re going to be off?? And for what?
-
Lol ... I called every other day. Then the day I decided to wait & not call I got the letter.. A couple of days later the surgeon’s office called ans scheduled my 4 hour class, my pre-op appointment & my surgery all at once!! They wanted to schedule me for Jan 10 th!!’ But I need to tie up stuff at work & find someone to fill in for me so I settled on February 6th... I’m soooo excited!

Than you!

Hi! My date is 2/6/18... I’m super excited and looking forward to this new chapter in my life. I started my process back in March - so needless to say I feel “relieved” that I am in the “home stretch”. I was nervous about the psych evaluation and the insurance approval - both went easily so don’t worry! Yay us!! -
Yay congrats!

Thank you so much for the reply & information!

Thank you for your response ... mine is mild and well controlled with minimum doses of meds... I think I'm just anxious about the whole "approval" process lol. It's like "passing" a test at school.
