I know of two people who have had this done as they were both drastically overweight BOTH regret it one is trying to get it reversed a girl one new in hospital died because of it.It is a serious operation not to be taken lightly I think you have to sign a disclaimer on the NHS resolving them if complications set in.

thanks for your reply shokadelika but i think you might mean the bypass operation which is a very serious one i`m talking about adjustable banding have you heard anything about this
