Carol,

I had LAP-BAND® surgery in Jan and I highly recommend. Unfortunately my insurance denied my surgery and I was unable to find a hospital that I could afford to pay on my own. It wasn't the surgeons becoz they gave me a reduced price for self-pay but the hospitals (6 different ones throughout Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, & Ohio) refused.

I am in Noblesville and am trying to get all Indiana LAP-BAND® folks together once a month or so to just chat. Let me know if you would like to be included. Iff you are still deciding maybe we will be able to answer those questions you have found answers on this support board.
