Hi! Im Shelly from Nacogdoches. I was banded in Mexico in August and I'm very happy! Are there any support groups in Nacogdoches or Lufkin?

I keep hearing about banding in Mexico &/or Mexicali. I was quoted $7000. But never received an answer if they will allow payments. The doctor in Mexico you are seeing...what were their price ranges?
