Have been interested in lap banding for a few years.  Wanting to get more info on the procedure.  Like:  do I qaulify?  Does my insurance pay for it?  what are the pro's and con's?  how does the approval process work?  I've been told that you have to have several medical problems to be even considered, is this true???  Very confused right now.
