Hi guys, It late and I imagine that most of you are in bed or heading that way. Especially the Goodwill Gals, and I am not far behind myself. I had a very stressful day!!! First I had to take Mom to the Dr and of course he didnt have anything good to tell us, just increased her meds to Lortab, and ordered more tests. Then, I went to that stupid psych evaluation. It was AWFUL! It was Dr Stote and he raked me over the coals. I had to fill out one paper with 20 questions and then another with 485 ! I think that maybe he thinks I'm too crazy for WLS. I mean he asked me every personal question imaginable. Had I been sexually abused as a child (I had), was I physically abused, my Dad was a serious alchololic need I say more. I'm on my third marriage (finally happy) and I take meds for depression. I'm afraid that he is going to say that I dont need surgery but that I need a shrink. If so Im gonna say well thats cool but can I have both! hehehe I just felt ill when I left. Im really not crazy but he sure made me feel like it! When it was over he said that the people for revisions are reviewed by "the team", that they would do it Thursday. Oh yeah there was another gal there waiting to go in when I came out and I said whew good luck that was rough. She said really how long were you in there and I told her an hour. Then she went in too, but about 15 minutes later as I sat there finishing the stupid ......somebodys watching me.......485 question test she comes out smiling and says oh its just that my life is boring. Well I guess I should have lied and said nope all is well I was raised by Ward and June Cleaver! I read where someone was denied because the psych said she was an emotional eater, arent we all? Anyway I was so encouraged until today and now the bottom has fell out! Well I just wanted to vent my frustration and also see if I am the only on here who has had issues in there life and/or did you feel like the head shrinker thought you were nuts. OK I am off to bed now so I will talk to you all tomorrow. I am so happy to see all of the approvals and I still hope I will be a loser soon too! Thanks for listening (reading) and letting me vent some I appreciate it. Christine

i have my doubts about this...cos i passed...LMAO and if i made it i know anyone else sure will....maybe due to the fact you were a revision is why you were asked so much more..and there is next to no one who was raised perfect, and no childhood issues.. i would think due to your being a revison they just go more into things and check it out more.....but you vent away...

Thanks ya'll I appreciate you guys so much. I couldnt wait to get to the computer to cry on your shoulders. I talked to my husband so much that he got tried of listening and kept trying to redirect me by changing the subject all the time. He doesnt get it, no one does and I just know that you guys understand how it feels to want and need WLS so much and fear that you may not get there. Hugs Christine

Hi Christine~ Been there, done that! Yeah, its sucks and they make you feel crazy but don't let it discourage you. Keep your chin up and come on back to your "family" whenever you need a hug. Jaimee
