    Thank you Mariah for your honesty. I appreciate that you are so down to earth and explain well the process.

      Thank you so much! I’m glad I can be of help. I try to be as transparent as possible so I can help people get answers to all the questions I had!

    How was the psych evaluation ? I have it scheduled for may 12th with Dr.Thomas and I’m nervous.

      It went well! He was really nice. I mostly just remember him asking about my support system. I told him I had my husband and family rooting for me, so he was happy for me and not concerned at all. It was pretty chill. :)

      Also how quick was the process since you didn’t have to meet with the surgeon 6 times? All I have left to do before I meet with Dr. Bovard again is the psych evaluation and cardiac test. Endoscopy will be scheduled when I meet with him at the end of this month.

    Do they drug test you

      They do a series of blood tests. I do believe they check for smoking but I’m not 100% sure.
