When you said you had surgery on the 19th at OHSU, I understood it to be the 19th of October!!  I thought you had already had the surgery.  Well, that will be a heck of a way to spend the Thanksgiving holidays.....I did it last year.  LOL.  I had PS 2 days before T day.

Well, my prayers are with you for a good outcome and greatly reduced pain!

Oh, about the same, thanks.  If I don't move too much and take my drugs, I do okay.  Surgery is on the 19th.  I have my pre-ops on the 11th.  Only six more working days and I'm outta here.  Sure wi**** was for something fun!

Topic: HELP - Need a "BOARD CERTIFIED PSYCHIATRIST" in Portland

I am getting so close now to getting my approval but I have one final hoop to jump through. I have already done the psycholigist but now they want me to be seen by a "board certified PSYCHIATRIST". I am happy to jump through the hoop but not sure who to see.

Does anyone have someone they can recommend in Portland so I can get started quickly. I guess it only has to be a  one-time "consult" appt. and even the 3rd party review person from SHPS says she thought it was rediculous and redundent....but oh well, so be it.

Thank you for any recommendations!

Yeah Trisha!!  I'm glad to see you're doing the leader training.  I think it's really important to have support group meetings locally.  You'll be great at it.

Tomorrow evening is the monthly support group meeting for the greater McMinnville/Yamhill county area.

We meet at the Willamette Valley Hospital in McMinnville from 6:00-7:00 PM in the room closest to the cafeteria.

I am pleased to be receiving training for leader certification through OH.  The information is invaluable not just to me, but I have information I would like to share with you as well.

Tomorrow we will be talking about what constitutes success not only in the eyes of the WLS community, but in our own  eyes as well.

I look forward to seeing you there.

Sincerely,

Trisha Schnatterly
