Guest guest Posted April 29, 2008 Report Share Posted April 29, 2008 Hi a! Welcome to the group, Momma! Have you decided for sure which procedure you are intersted in? I was banded in Feb. I have 2 children at home (one has special needs) and if I can do it, anyone can. I was so lucky to have a friend go with me to Mexicali. There are big leather sofas in each hospital room for your guest. As far as cost, I'm not sure how much the sleeve is but the lap-band is about $7900. It is not too hard to find places to get fills in your state but alot of people prefer to go back to MX since we get free fills for life. We just have to pay about $78 to the hospital for the xray room (plus airfaire and stuff). My whole experience was top-notch. I was a nervous wreck before hand, as I am sure we all were having surgery in another country, but they were so good to me. Put it this way, I'd rather have surgery there than here again. Good luck in your research and decision making. I worked on it for over a year and I have not regreted my decision yet. O Be a better friend, newshound, and know-it-all with Mobile. Try it now.
