I am a 42 year old male and have been overweight all of my life, despite being extremely active as a youth and playing sports year round.
Diets are like a yo-yo, up and down and back up.
Understanding that the Adjustable Gastric Band Operation has not been approved by the FDA in America, I wish to find information about doctors in Canada or Latin America that are performing the operation. I would consider Sweden or Austria but cannot afford the cost. I cannot get insurance because of pre-existing conditions and do not have a lot of money. This will have to come out of my pocket. Laparoscopic adjustable silicone gastric band for the treatment of obesity was developed in Europe and is currently under investigational use in the United States.
