NEED ENCOURAGEMENT PLEASE

Hi  I need some encourgement..I was ready to have surgery with one doctor and backed out due to having a feeling in my gut that his office and staff really were not up to par..so now I had to start over again with a new doctor.. I have medicare so I dont have to do much just what the doctor wants me to do. I had already had my phyic eval and passed. NOW I have to get a new one done and (that scares me ( i have a lot of anxity and depression) i have been seeing a phyic for it and a  counslor as well..so they know what I'm going through. 1) Oct 31st see the PA for history and phyical 2) nov- see there shrink ( this scares me) 3-Nov see the doctor if I pass the phyical eval.. I just feel like come on get it over with..I dont have a lot of friends that I can talk to so I feel alone..I have gone to one support group meeting and will keep going until surgery. 1- have had stress test done -passed 2- sleep study done -passed so that part is over with.. Thank you for any input and God bless

did you just bring the report from your first eval to the new doctor?  if it was recent i can't understand why he'd make you go through another... but if he does, don't sweat it.  they are used to people being anxious and nervous. you'd be crazy not to be.  we've all been there and you'll do fine.  just try to be kind to yourself and don't beat yourself up.  it's all gonna work out.  you'll see.

Jay thank you so much for you resp The new Dr..Dr Foote requeries you to use the on staff eval.. again thanks for resping back its nice  not to feel alone..

Jay sorry for the hear I thought you were a lady..not that I dont thank you for resping to my post..I jsut didnt want to give the wring impression..what a nice place you and your wife went to the hotel its so pretty

lol, yeah i'm not the one in the dress but i see how that can be deceiving!  not sure what you mean about the hotel.  i get easily confused.  ;-)

Its the pick you have post of you and your wife..

no hotels there.  the one in our avatar is the wedding at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.  the ones in my profile are a restaurant (The Whitney) in downtown Detroit and The Melting Pot in Troy.  All nice places though!

wow thats as nice restaurant...very nice..

You're never alone on this website. You have A TON of people who know what you are going through and who are here for you. I know how you feel. I'm just going to my first consult and I am nervous about that.  If you ever need to talk I'm here. You can email me at [email protected] . Just think . You took the first step to do something wonderful for yourself

YOu have nothing to worry about with the MMPC Staff. ALL are wonderful even Scott Glass who I'm sure is doing your eval.  He was very nice and knew what I was going through, and he knew the prime reason I was depressed and full if anxiety was because of my weight.  I had to go through 2 Psychological evals and both were a piece of cake.  I was not scared at ALL during my journey.  I wanted this done and knew if I was scared/nervous it would just slow me down. 

As said above, MMPC staff is the greatest.. no worries. :O)
