So, since the people in my life have mixed ideas about my having RNY, I am going to come here and talk about the steps I'm taking!
Psych scheduled for June 15, Sleep study June 19, Found a new reg doctor,   have an appt with my psychiatrist whom I see twice a year for an antidepressant so that she can write a letter saying I'm okay to have the surgery.
Whew.  Pretty soon it will be waiting game with insurance an losing the 10 lbs.

Good luck with your journey, I am also on the journey, waiting for surgery now.  Have you decided on a weight loss surgery surgeon??? and who is your insurance company??

I have!  Paul Benn
You'll be glad to know that a friend of mine is married to a weight loss surgeon and when I told her where I was going she recommended him.   I feel badly, but I really couldn't go to her husband's clinic even though I don't know him at all.  Just would have been weird!?

My insurance is BCBS MN.  I do have the six month waiting period, though the doc said it could be different based on my sleep study.

I really like Dr. Benn, he is very caring and a fabulous surgeon!!
I did not have to wait the 6th months, but then again I have HealthPartners insurance.
Let us know when you get all your appointments in and how things are going for you okay??
