New bandster in iowa

[edwardr30 0]

Well I did it. My insurance didn't cover the lap band, but with the incouragement of and old friend and and internet search, I found a clinic in Dallas Tx that did my band for $9990. I was in and out not a big deal so far. Wish me luck. That price included 1 year of fills, but i have to drive to dallas for the followups. But hey, I got it done for half price and my doctor is a good one.

Maybe I can find a local doctor for the fills?
