Question:
Hypothyroidism and The Lap Band

My question is... I have Hypothyroidism... will this keep me from being able to have the band surgery? If anyone has any information to share on this topic, thank you in advance. Sheryl    — Sheryl W. (posted on October 5, 2002)

The hypothyroidism doesn't affect band surgery at all. I asked my doc before my surgery.
