worm2872 635 Posted October 25, 2012 Yes. Most insurance companies and dr require one to make sure you can handle the life chafes the surgery brings and to see if you have any depression that may need treated. Hope this helps good luck. 1 babygirl901 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ellie_Grace 271 Posted October 25, 2012 yes, I think it is a normal requirement. Let's just say I have not heard of anyone that did not have to get one. They are no big deal by the way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pwnykat 42 Posted October 25, 2012 Yeah I had one - as a result I also need a year of therapy concurrently with the op etc... Otherwise the surgeon wouldnt have agreed to do the surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akc313 89 Posted October 26, 2012 that's my worry! my surgeon have not asked me to have 1 done!!! only reason I know about it now is because my cousin who had the surgery years ago just asked me if I had mine done today. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
