Age restrictions?

I am 69 years old. I have type 2 diabetes, but other than that, I am in reasonably good health, with the problems of being over weight by at least100 lbs. do you know if my age will restrict me from this procedure?

      you should go to a free seminar and ask the doctor to see, It would be hard to try to get an answer on here because everyone's doctor does different things. Good luck!!
