bayteelee 0 Posted July 20, 2005 I have endometriosis and was wondering if I can still get the band. I am just starting my research into the lap band. Can anyone recomend a surgon in Washington State? I think my insurance will cover after reading the policy but if I am self pay what has everyone been paying in the states?? Thanks for the input!!

vinesqueen 2 Posted July 21, 2005 Girl parts have nothing to do with stomach parts! Completely differnt system. Sort of like asking if you need to worry about a mason if you have electrical problems. I have the band, love the band; have girl problems, hate the girl problems. I'll be getting an ablation in a couple of weeks, hopefully that will fix my girl problems.

bayteelee 0 Posted July 21, 2005 Last year when I had surgery to clean out the endometriosis it was on my bladder, bowels and on my stomach. Endo travels fast when it has taken the ovaries and tubes already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
goldidreds 0 Posted January 30, 2010 I have been wondering about the same thing. I go soon to talk to my surgeon but if you hear anything about the lap band and endo. will you please feel me in? I have a hysterectomy due to complications with endo and I have have issues. I am worried that some of that tissue will connect to the band. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
