Ok im 32 and have suffered with anxioty and panic all my life i am having the band in april my question is ...can u feel the band around your stomach? Im really freaking out my boss had it done a year ago and hasd lost over 100 pounds and has told me nothing but great things about it ....i found out today she has been out the past few days because had to have band removed due to alot of problems i guess she failed to tellme this cause she didnt want me to worry.im so scared i have never had any surgery,stitches or broken bones....need reassurance everything will be ok
