  1. update... my band has eroded less than a year of recieving it.. i hear it happens alot in mexico surgeries... have not removed it with no money to do so and it is painful

  2. Hello im also curious for who in kc does 100 dollar fills. -thank u

  3. I did not have insurance or a job and saw a special about how cheap it was in Mexico and how common it is for americans to go there for lapbands, plastic surgery, and dental surgery to save lots of $$$$. If I hadnt gone to mexico i would still be wishing i could get it done
  4. I went to Mexico for mine and they told me that I would return to my hotel a few hours after the surgery. but that did not happen I tried to stand up and was in so much pain that I had to stay overnight and had a hard time getting up the next day and had to lay down in the shower and was in quite a bit of pain for about a week and after that nothing unless i eat too much or too fast--that makes me feel like i am having a heart attack. I did not think it was worse than getting a c section though. But yes the pain is definately worth the thirty pounds ive lost so far

    I was banded by Dr Pompa on 5/12/08 and besides not being able to call my drs office with questions am good-this website has helped me so -and the coordinators have been helpful too!!

    I was banded on 5-12-08 by Dr Pompa -my family did not want me to go because i am a single mother of a 2 year old girl. i did not do my research on her before i went--i did it after i got back and was terrified!--but thankfully the people that say the bad things have no experience with her and i do and am 100% fine. And would recommend her ive lost 20 lbs so far and feel as normal as anyone else on here
