How long was your overall weight and did you have too see psych???
Hi Sarah, I've been given go ahead, seen everyone except psychiatrist. My app is in march, After then I shall be given a date. Been the longest 4 months ever.
Firstly I didn't have to see pysc they went to MDT the first time and the pysc team said they wanted to see me, that's the but that held me up! I then had to wait for my pysc appointment ( which unless your binger is basically to warn you about transfer addiction and that you will be left with lose skin ect) So I saw my gp in the November of 2013. First app January 2014 with dietician Then around feb time saw the surgeon Then saw the psych team in April. It then it took until June to hear back. I then got my date in the july for August the 9th! I started at 24st on 24th july im not 16st 9 so still 6 St 9lb to go! What surgeon did you see?
Wow one step ahead of me! What did the nutritionist want to know? Did you know you'd have to see psychiatrist all along or did they spring it on you?

This Friday! The surgeon said he would be happy for me not to see psychologist but now wondering if I shouldn't make appointment myself to move it along a bit....
I didn't know you could make your own app. What surgeon did you see? I saw Dr Reddy. He told me was happy to go ahead and sent me a letter stating the same. I thought it was the dietician who said I needed to see psych, I've now been told it's procedure. So I'm not sure, I received a letter early December saying my app for psych is end of March. Shock horror, feels like forever
I had Mr Andrew Wan.
