Social Worker TWH Monica

I am very nervous about my next appointments, something in my mind is still saying 'maybe you won't get approved' Is this a normal fear? I have a BMI of 42 or so, with no diagnosed co morbs. I do have joint pain, and trouble functioning throughout the day, doing the daily duties others can easily do. I have become such a recluse, and feel like my quality of life is so poor...

Anyway, I have read a few nightmare stories in dealing with the social workers and I am pretty scared about it. Anyone have Monica at TWH? I hope it goes OK...

I met with her, she is lovely. I was so nervous, I told her that... Not to mention I had battled through a snowstorm to get there so I was a little rattled to begin with.  Try not to worry, she is really nice. Some questions are tough, but just be honest. 

Thanks for easing my nerves a bit! All I can do is be honest, thanks again...

Hi Blueiiis, 

what kind of questions does the social worker ask??

Hi all!  I am going today at TWH to see Lynn and I am really nervous.  Has anyone had Lynn?  Does anyone know what kinds of questions the social worker will ask?

Hi Jennifer,

Hope all went well at your appt!
