Hi everybody! i am so happy that i found this site I am considering the lap band and all the post here are very informative. I have an app. to see my doctor in a week for a physical so i will bring it up then. i was just curious to see how everybody discussed it with their doctor, i am nervous about brining it up. Also once you told your primary how long did it take for you to find a specialist and get the surgery. Thanks everybody you are all so inspirational.
