:frown:Hi! My name is Stacey, I'm 37 years old. I had the lap band put in about 6 years ago in Mexico. I just found out that it has eroded into my stomach. They want to go in and remove it in two weeks. It has also made a hole in my stomach they have to fix. I am soooooo scared!! I could use some information about this procedure. Thanks, Stacey:frown:
