Well I am baqck from my eval have mixed feelings
I had a 3hr eval most of it was answering questions then they did a personality profile from them and sent me in to talk with the cliniction. What he had to say about me was soo off base on how I am in real life . He said according to their little test I satrt things gun ho but really fizzle out and don't finish .. ok I am the one around here who DOES do everything and make sure it is finished . He then told me I was overely involved or concerned with my health issues mostly my vision well no duh I am blind I have had to learn to deal with becomeing visualy impaired and I live everyday with the fact I could loss what little (3%) of my central vision I have left . I don't let it stop me from doing many things ..if anything I work my butt off to find a way to do things most would think immpossable for someone like me too do ... But he did have me sign the contract and papwework to send over to my surg .. I just am reakky co fused by this I will and do have plans on following everything my Surg .

Laura,
I had my psych eval at the Evelyn Frye Center required by Centennial's program. The psychologist I met with also said that I was overly involved or concerned with my health issues. I wanted to say "no sh*t sherlock, why do you think I'm having gastric bypass surgery" I had to sign something similar as well. Don't worry, you'll still get your surgery

Hi Laura and April. I had 3 psychs give me similar ones. The first just out and said after I took his stupid test that he wouldn't give me a clearance. The second said I was unstable to handle recovery and the tool after surgery, and the third said I needed more therapy before he would even agree to give me a clearance. I think I have handled everything I've been thru with more stability then anyone else I know. But it cost me three denials from the surgeons. What do they know about us. Not a darn thing. I so want to tell those surgeons just what I have been thru and how much I have lost. Unstable indeed. Love Kathy
