Psych apt

So today I saw the psychiatrist for my anxiety. Looks like I need to get that under control first. After 2-3 months then I will start psych evaluation and fry too move forward with lap band

Good luck on your journey! I hope everything works out well for you!

I have a panic disorder and it did not cause an issue with my banding. I also quit smoking and am on wellbutrin (that will cause anxiety). I was a cash pay, that might make a difference.

I have an anxiety disorder as well. I did notice an increase in anxiety for a short period after surgery. Oddly, it was at night prior to sleeping and waking from sleep. I didn't have full blown panic attacks, just some anxiety.

So psych put me on trazadone at night and Zoloft during day. Haven't discussed meeting the other psych for the evaluation for lap

Band yet:( guess no one at kaiser will discuss it yet until anxiety under control
