Just read your interesting posts and having a balloon inserted this month and would love to stay in contact with people that have had it done. I to have had doctor issues and panic attacks and was very worried about surgery, i walked out from having my gallbladder removal due to the way the surgeon treated me and since then have hated going back in. Im dreading having this done but reasuured that it isnt going under at least. due to all the health problems i have i think this was the best choice for me to make for now even tho some stories sound very scarey. Hope to hear back from you'S:wave_cry: lex
