Consultation today.

My first visit very excited and so far like my doctor. My biggest fear is the psychological part l have anxiety and panic attacks. I have been to many therapists and never any relief. But, the good thing is l haven’t had a panic attack in well over a month. I am just worried they will want me to go for more therapy. My primary care doctor is helping me with my anxiety.

I was really nervous going into the counselor, but I told her that from the get go, and she understood. We first talked about why I was nervous, massive life change(!), and why it was important to me to have the surgery. We went over my concerns, history of weight loss attempts, support system, and goals. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be. I have anxiety as well, and my primary is who helps with that also. It’s pretty normal to be nervous for this appointment.
