dkrolak 0 Posted March 17, 2009 Hi, I am new here. I have a 31 bmi, sleep apnea, high colest., among a few other things. Do you think someone would do lapband for me? Thanks, Diana in MN Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jodi_620 37 Posted March 18, 2009 Possibly...31 is a little below the guidelines but you could call around and see if a surgeon would do it. If you would be using insurance and they have set guidelines that you do not meet, it is unlikely that you would be approved though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nobody's Girl 0 Posted May 13, 2009 I am from Anoka MN and I had to fly to Mexico fro my surgey at a BMI of 32. It was well worth it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
staplegater 0 Posted May 13, 2009 I flew down to Mexico with a BMI of 31. You will most likely have to pay out of pocket for surgery, so that's why the next best thing is Mexico. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
