Hi Everyone,
Ive tried every diet and now im considering a gastric band. Ive done some reasearch on it but have a few questions which im hoping you can help me with.
1) How much do the refills costs - are any given free after the op?
2) How often do you have to 'top-up' the band?
3) This is a stupid one BUT will i ever be able to have a good drink and get merry again?
4) If the band fails to work for me, would i get my money back?
5) Im finding prices around £7000, does anybody recommend a good place / surgeon?
6) I have a really tough job (work night shifts) managing over 300 people and walking around all night, how much time would i need off work?
7) I am a smoker, must i stop before i am allowed to have the band?
Hope you can answer my questions! ill keep you posted on what i decide.
