Psychological Evaluation

Apr 27, 2010

I had my Psychological evaluation today and it went rather well. I saw Dr. Alexander Gimon in Clermont, FL and he was absolutely wonderful. He wasn't harsh and he wasn't overly critical. He did confuse me a few times, Like asking me what 8x4 is, while my mind is jumbled with nerves! I thought I had ruined my chances when I answer 24, lol. He also asked me to remember 3 words and he said apple, car, lamp.... and when he asked me to repeat them about 5 minutes later, I totally screwed them up! lol. But besides that it went very well, we talked about my history with food and about when my daughters father left me 4 months pregnant. That got pretty emotional but I held up well and he said I was handling it very nicely. When it was over and done, he asked me to schedule an appointment for the MMPI, which I knew nothing about. (I'm gonna have to do some research on that )  He also told me that I did great and that he was sure I would pass the MMPI and after that was finished and reviewed, he would fax it right over to my surgeon! SOOOO EXCITING!!! I'm just so glad that it went well because I was so nervous about it.  After the appointment was over, I had some extra time so I stopped by and had my blood drawn. Now I just have to finish this MMPI and have my nutritional evaluation! I'm getting closer!
