  1. Can you have lap band at 17?

    ttiwh posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    I am 17 years old and I weigh 328 pounds with a BMI of 51.4 and high blood pressure and borderline diabetes. I've been on diets since I was 11 or so, I've pretty much tried everything out there and my mother wants me to talk to my doctor about lap band... can I even have it at my age? Like does anyone know anyone with kids who have had it or read about it on there internet? Any help would be great! Thanks
