Hi there.. I am 23 years old 5' 5" and 305lbs. I am looking into getting lap band. I have attempted multiple diets including weight watchers and going to the gym. I am a paramedic and my job is pretty demanding and sometimes its tough being that I am soo out of shape. My only medical problem is asthma and seasonal allergies. I really want to loose weight before I develop hypertension and diabeties. I was wondering if 23 years old is to young to have a surgery. Also how to convince my doctor who things I can loose it on my own to let me have this surgery. My insurance is MVP.. I dont need referals which is a nice thing. Does anyone know any good doctors in the hudson valley? Id appreciate any information possible. Also how to get started.

Hi there.. I have a quick question for you. I am looking into the lap band surgery. I noticed you were fairly young as I am to.. I am only 22 going on 23 in a couple weeks. Was it hard to get your doctor to let you do the surgery being that you are young. I am currently 305lbs. Besides asthma I have no other medical problems. I have tryed several diets including weight watchers going to the gym and everything. If you would be so nice to provide me with some info id appreciate it. Also what part of NY are you from.. Im from the kingston area.. Im also an emt-p. Also if you have a recommendation for a doctor and how to get started Id appreciate it.
