Maincat, never realised this thread was a personal attack on ones spelling - everybody has the right to have a choice and an opinion!!! Thought discussions were there for encouragement. I think personal experiences may play a factor in the choice of UK hospitals but then you judged before you took the time to find out!!!

Im having mine done in belguim on the 7th May, I was apprehensive about all the lurgies in the UK hospitals - Did you have your done by Dr Foquet? Holding thumbs that mine goes well!!

Hi Donna, Im 28 years old and weigh nearly 26st. Im having my band put in on the 7 May. Im so excited I cant tell you. I never went through any doctors either, just contacted the surgeon straight away and that was that. I've not felt nervous or anxious cause this is the last desperate measure - Fortunately my family have been very supportive. In the long run, you need to do what is best for you!!!
