  1. Too Fat For The Band?

    nela mariposa posted a topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
    Soooo, I had to attend a support group as its one of my doctors rules. I went. Boy, do I regret finding a random group to attend. I attended (by accident) a group that had done the duadnal switch and the leader/nurse of the group told me that since my BMI is 53, I am too fat for the band. She told me that my doctor should've known this and offered the duadnal switch. Has anyone been told this before? What are your thoughts on this?
