Hiya, I had the RYN lap, to me i needed it my bmi was 47/48 which meant that the band was not really the option. Its awful here for this type of surgery, GP's either treat you like a freak or your their new experiment!!
Myself and two of my friends had the op and we are all doing fine, but to be honest if i was relying on medical support i'd be lost!! do what is right for you and put your faith in Dr D he is the master of this!!! As for traveling to get fills yep thats an issue esp if you go home to Oz but i am sure Dr D can release you so another surgeon can look after it for you!!! Anyho let me know how your doing!!
