  1. How much would a trip like that cost including the surgery? Im confused about how to go about this...
  2. Hello..My BMI is around 36 something...im 5'6" and weigh 225...Im not sure if some doctors would even consider me for this procedure? Help!!
  3. what part of Mexico did u travel to to have ur surgery? I dont have any kind of insurance...Do you know if there is any way to set up a payment plan for something like that or would it have to be in lump sum? And also, im not real positive if i would be a candidate for the surgery.im kinda borderline...im 5'6 1/2'' and weigh 225...im not sure if im overweight enough for this procedure...???
  4. Hi my name is Crystal. I have heard about the LapBand procedure and it sounds like a wonderful thing. I live in Arkansas and was wondering if there were any doctors in my state or nearby that does the surgery. The only ones i have heard of are like in Mexico and other countries. I also wondered about other things such as how fast you may see results, and how much would a procedure like this cost. Any help from anyone would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much..Crystal
