Hi
I am male age 66 with type 2 diabetes on insulin, I weigh 118kg. My specialist has offered and is trying to persuade me to have a gastric band. My 3 month test is around 8.5 and I am struggling to get it down, I also have bad arthritis and have had 2 new knees.
Has anyone any experience of a gastric band, I cook a lot and enjoy my food very much so obviously have concerns about this procedure.
Thanks
Paul
