i have no friends in this state to use as support and my kids are all in conn and i am in nc. I am considering lap band surgery in the near future and i am scared out of my mind. I have had no surguries in the past and all three of my kids were born naturally. SO as u can see i am scared but yet i know if i do nothing i will be dead soon. I am on disab due to my back, i have diabetes but it is controlled with no meds but diet. I have hbp , high chlosteral, and very inactive due to my back and much pain.

so i need some support that is local and can help me thru this. I would greatly appreciate it. thanks to all and thanks for all the information i am finding here.

I am in the pre-op stage with Dr. Fernandez also. My surgery is scheduled for 7/12/11. If you would like to talk, please add me as a friend and contact me. Thanks.
