I had my lapband done in Mexico a little over 2 years ago. I was at 210 lbs, had high blood pressure, acid reflux, and was in constant pain with my arthritis. I knew I had to do something but could not afford to have the surgery done in the US and my insurance company said I wasn't heavy enough. I didn't want to wait for my health to decline even further so made the decision to go to Mexico for my surgery. I have been extremely pleased with the results so far and no longer need blood pressure medication, my acid reflux is gone and my arthritis is much better. I love the way I look and feel now. I am not at my weight goal of 130 lbs yet, but am at 153 lbs.
