Are you referencing the post that Jean made about allergan selling it's Lapband division? that leaves many patients in a bit of a pickle i think. I'd ask your surgon if he has a spare plan for those who have the allergan appliance and are in need of further surgery due to appliance difficulties. It is sad that allergan is basically "dumping" their client base, baised on the article that Jean posted. I'd talk with your surgon if this is concerning to you.

I think Jean was pretty clear. Allergan is selling the Lap Band division. Whoever buys it will also buy responsibility for long term. I don' here much about erosion from people who follow the basic rules. I don't feel dumped by the way. I still have a weight loss practice with competent medical professionals to guide me.
