That is awesome. I'm hoping to have pre-requisites done and have surgery by end of July

@@DAWYFE that is why I have found also. I like that will have an additional restriction. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I know this is old post but wanted to see how you ladies felt now about doing the iband? I am thinking about having it done and like having the additional restriction

@@4MRB4PHOTO LOL. Hopefully no new models. And won't have to download new operating software that causes it to have bugs lol.

It is covered by my insurance. Same cost as just lapband. I searched for any post on it and did not find any. It is a newer procedure. Here is a link on it. https://www.weightlosscenterar.com/bariatric-procedures/iband-imbricated-gastric-band-banded-plication.php No more complications than just lapband and same recovery is why I am thinking about doing it.

My surgeon offers iBand which is gastric plication along with the lapband. Thinking about having this procedure instead of just lapband. Anyone had this WLS? Or know anyone that has? Looking for feedback.
