Gene, I called this Pschy place by Paridise Valley mall. I got a appt, for the next day. I did the testing done first on the computer and talked to the doctor for about 45 mins. THan I was out of there. He would not tell me If I passed. He said I did good on his side. My he has to compare the comments that I did on the computer. He took my Healthnet HMO plan. His name was Dr Vijay Jain Like (jane). He was really cool and nice but he really did not talk much about wait loss surgery maybe alittle bit. I can tell he wanted to get out og the office and go home. It was 6.45pm and still light out. I can't believe what a quick appt I got. He jusy focused on life in general. The testing part asked you 3 or 4 times do you love your mother or do you want to set a big fire or do you want to hurt some one and that was over over again. His phone # is 602 494 8105. Chairs were very small and hurt my hips. The couch was so low I could not get out of it.In the testing room things were so cramed in there. It was very painful to take the test I elevated my legs on a CPU on the floor. I haveto cancel appt for my psy testing done on JUne 16 and will cancell in the am.The person I was suppose tp see was Steven Salvov and they take very LONG to do reports. They are at the AZ Neurolical ASS BUILDING across from Bowell hospital there # is 972 3800 and ask for Sonjia in Higgins and Salvau office. Hope I could help you . Dawn
Topic: RE: Preop pressure!
Just had my surgery last Wednesday. Still dont know if I have done the right thing. My blood sugar is down to 131. I think that is pretty good. Other than that... The pain is mostly gone but I had to sit through a pizza and a mexican dinner today while I sipped water. Its not going to be easy.
Topic: RE: I'm home!
I got home Friday. I wish I had exchanged numbers with the young lady walking the hall with me so I could take the journey along with someone else to share experiences. I have been searching for someone to talk to about my new life.
Topic: RE: Heart Murmer/Englarged Heart
When I went for my clearances (a cardio was required because I was over 40), I found out I have an enlarged ascending aorta in addition to a murmer.
I went to a cardio/thorasic surgeon in addition to my cardiologist and both gave me a clearance. They put me on Toprol XL and things went fine.
I was banded back in Nov 06.
