I'm on Lexapro too. I had to crush the pills for the first 5 weeks. But now I can swallow them whole again.

From what I understand a big part of the reason they do a psy is to weedout those with extreme personality disorders who might sabatoge their surgery, and really harm themselves. Garden variety depression is not what they are looking for....

Hi there. I'm new here and I am nervous about being denied because of my meds. After reading this forum, I've learned that my anti-depressant wont be a problem, but I also take Adderall for ADD. Has anyone heard of that particular med being an issue for being approved or in any way? Thanks!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
