It is that dreaded time of the years and I have a question about my taxes. When I found out that a lap-band was very hard to get on my insurance I went to Mexico(07/2007) and got mine as a self pay. Can I claim this medical expense ($7250) on my federal and states taxes? Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance for any and all help.

Was your placed in Mexico or the states. Were you ever questioned about the amount and what it was for?
