Mine was just a causal talk about why I wanted the surgery and to see if I know what I was getting into. Just an eval to see if you ready for the surgery or need more time for research and get your head right and focused on everything... If your wishy washy they will want to see you again...Hi, just starting the process for gastric bypass and I see there is a mental health eval that is required for surgery approval. Will someone share their experience with the eval..i.e.....who performs it..how complex is it..etc. Tx

When I had mine it was pretty basic questions, I forgot I was being tested lol, and just answered them honestly, it went really well, nothing to worry aboutHi, just starting the process for gastric bypass and I see there is a mental health eval that is required for surgery approval.

I have been doing well, thank you. The biggest challenge for me so far has been the smell of food I loved that I can't eat right now.... Really have no hunger so if I do eat I measure it out so I don't over eat. that is uncomfortable.Thank you Keith for the info on mental health eval... How have you been feeling these past few days? What do you consider to be your biggest challenge so far?
