Hi Everyone!

I absolutely love the site. I have been researching WLS for a while and I have decided the band is the way to go for me. I have a 42 BMI and I can no longer do this alone. I hope the band will help me get to a comfortable weight. I will have to go to MX for the surgery because I have no insurance. I am currently searching for a Doctor to do my fills. I live in NC and so far no real luck. I will be trying to finalize something this week so wish me luck. I would love some advice. I may have to fly to a nearby state for my fills.

My goal is to have surgery done sometime in May, but I will no schedule anything until I have a local doctor lined up for after care.

Thanks,

Roc

soon to be ( A New Roc )

Roc, best of luck to you! If you've been researching any, I'm sure you've seen the importance of having a local doctor lined up BEFORE you go to Mexico - in the event you have problems and/or can't get back to Mexico. There are several Mexican bandsters here and I'm sure they'll all have plenty of advice for you. We also have bandsters in your area that can tell you who they use for a fill dr. How much weight would you like to lose? We look forward to "talking" w/you here on LBT.

Hi Roc.. and welcome to LBT!

Welcome and I hope you find a good local Dr.! After care is so important and you should definatly get that lined up first so you are on the right track.Good luck with getting your band and let us know when you get a band date!!!
