I am now applying for FMLA. My surgery date is Halloween. What I need to know

is this. My company, on their physician certification form, there is a question that says "patient diagnosis". I have gone to great lengths to keep what I am doing from my company. I have only told them that I am having surgery to correct a problem that I have been having for a long time. I DO NOT want ANYONE, even the HR director (since everyone is very clicky at work and the HR director is like Best friends with my boss. Even if she is not allowed to tell her, she probably would) to know what kind of surgery I am having. So what can be put under diagnosis, other than morbid obesity, that may require surgery? I would appreciate any suggestions. I am going to talk it over with my doctor, but I was hoping others here could help me out with this one. Thanks
