[font=comic sans ms, cursive][size=4]Heavy my entire life... at the age of 35 I decided to under go the gastric lap banding. The cost was 14,500.00 it was out patient. I lost 50 pounds in 6 months... I was sick with the band. Very sick.... No matter how loose or how tight the band I would constantly get sick and vomit even in my sleep.[/size][/font]
[font=comic sans ms, cursive][size=4]After 4 years and still weighing 207 pounds I went to see a different Doctor in Joliet IL. I wanted the band removed. It had prolapsed around my stomach. My dr recommended me to have the band removed and to have the Gastric Bypass in it's place. It was a tough decisicon byt under the circumstances I decided to go ahead and move forward with the procedure.[/size][/font]
[font=comic sans ms, cursive][size=4]I'm now 3 years out, and very Healthy, Happy and have no regrets.... I was self pay and must say no regrets paying out the money. My body is a vessel and it's awesome! [/size][/font]
