  1. I went to a seminar last night that the doctor discouraged the Lap Band, and was pushing the sleeve. I have some medical conditions that require me to be on blood thinners, so I feel the best option for me is the Band. I am only beginning the process of finding doctors and deciding if this is good for me. The doctor said when I asked why he was discouraging the Lap Band he said it is in-effective. Reading the success on the forums I am not seeing that, and I know someone that is having success over 4 years now. Is there any one long term with the band that can tell me your thoughts. Is the band worth getting?? I can loose, I can't keep it off so I'm hoping the Band will take care of that. Any one have any thoughts. Success ? Failures? What is your opinion of the Lap Band, would you do it again or choose another surgery? Margaret

    Doctor Discouraged Lap Band Procedure

    @ inner surfer girl, didn't say it would or wouldn't, this was my first seminar and was just surprised to have a doctor take something off the table in such a general manner.
