After weight loss surgery with the LAP-BAND® Adjustable Gastric Band, many medical problems such as hypertension, diabetes and sleep apnea may, depending on your individual circumstance, improve or, in some cases, be resolved. It is not necessary to lose all of your excess weight in order to achieve improvement with many of these medical conditions. Your surgeon will consider your individual circumstances and will be able to discuss how weight loss may positively impact your existing weight-related medical problems.
