Heading South from Washington to Monterrey

This is my first post, but I have been wondering around this site for a few months. What a wealth of information. I've really wanted to have this surgery for quite a while. Unfortunately my insurance absolutely won't pay for it and I didn't have the ability to finance it myself. Well.... a lady I work with went to Monterrey Mexico w/ Dr. Sanchez for the lap band. I did alot of checking and asking around and ...... now I am scheduled for September 22nd. I can't wait. I truly feel like someone has thrown me a life preservor and I am going to hang on for dear life!! Smiles, Karrie

Good Luck to you Karrie!!! I am sorry you had no luck with your insurance company, but I am happy for you that you found a referral to a good doctor that can help you. See ya' around the board! Keep hanging on!!! Donna
