I am just outside of DC. My sleeve is January 11th. I'd be happy to share when I'm back home. I also need to find a local doctor for my post-op care, so I may need referrals from you all.

Pray, Speak, Do! ~Meesh~

How are you? Just checking in

Hi everyone I'm from Fairfax, Va. I have to set up a psych evaluation but am nervous about it. Can you tell me what types of questions they ask and how long it takes?

Don't be nervous! They ask some pretty general questions and then give you an online form to fill out. Just answer honestly and you will be ok.

My interview was like a general conversation. We talked about what I've done/am doing to prepare for this life change, what got me to this point, my weight and diet history, eating habits, and my support system. It lasted about 45min-1hr.

Don't be, I actually took a computerized test that asked a trillion questions. But very simple things like I am very happy in my life right now?

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
