Hi, I know NOTHING about this and I am trying to learn as much as I can before I decide what I must do. But I guess I need to do something! Anyway, hello, hope to learn from y'all.

Welcome! I'm still in the process of being approved and have learned so much from this board. Thank You! to all who have shared your experiences here, it really helps. Keep reading and you to will get a lot of good info here. It keeps me inspired.

I'm looking for someone to talk to in my area - Western Washington state. I am not even sure what questions to ask - why do I see so many references to Mexico? What about costs? Who is good up here in the Pacific Northwest, or should I forget about it because of costs? Any info would be great help.

Totally confused and worried, here.

Hi gort, and welcome to LBT.

A lot of people go to Mexico because their insurance doesn't cover WLS, or they just prefer a Mexican surgeon.

You might like to try having a look in your states forum, and posting this question there.

Best of luck with everything, and again, welcome to LBT!

Hi ! Welcome to the board! Lots of good info and support here. Donna
