Hello there, I am looking around at all the info available about Lap Bands and came across this site. I was quite set on doing it until I read of all the complications everyone has had!! I wondered if you could help me answer a few questions about Lap Banding to help me make up my mind? 1) Would you do it again if you could reverse time? 2) Does everyone have such bad pain after the op? 3) How long would I need to take off work after the op? 4) Does everyone have problems with bad breath, dry wretching, nausea, vomitting, leaking ports etc? 5) Why would you have an 'emergency unfill'? 6) Has anyone had one in Belgium or Prague 7) Can anyone recommend a good surgeon / clinic in the UK? 8) Does it really help much more than trying to restrict portions yourself? THANKS SO MUCH in advance, I really appreciate it.
