Hello...My name is Heather and I am 28 yrs. old. I live in Springfield, MO. and my gynecologist talked to me a bit about having the lap-band procedure done. I am hesitant, simply because I am not educated on it. I hope and I do believe being a part of a support group/forum I will get plenty of information about this procedure I have not made an appt. to have it done, yet. Our hospital..St. John's is putting together a seminar for people to attend and ask questions, etc. It is scheduled for Nov. 20th and my husband....My support! is going with me. I would love any kind of support, ideas, opinions, suggestions that anyone could give me. Have a greatttttttttt day! Until next time-Heather
