stomach ulcer and getting a lapband?

hi everyone, im new and i hope im in the right place. im so glad i found this website its great. i was looking forward so much to getting my lapband after wasting so much time debating it. unfortunatley i have a question that im really scared could mean i cant get a lapband. my problem is that i remembered that about 2 and a half years ago my doc said i had an ulcer and i was treated and have been ok since. but my fear is that if you have had an ulcer or a history of one ,as apparently you can still have one with no symtoms - go figure! does this mean that you cant have a lapband. i would be so grateful to anyone who has knowledge or experience to help me answer this question. for instance can the surgeon place the band away from an ulcer so it doesnt irritate of affect it. im really panicing that i wont be able to get my band because of this. again i would really appreciate anyone coming back to me who has any experience or knowledge/any information that could help me with this.

thank you all so much
