SalOdyssey 441 Posted June 25, 2016 For photos or video of your procedure. I kind of want both or at least 1. I guess the curious side of me wants to know what my insides look like. So anyones surgeon here give them video or photos? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KristenLe 5,979 Posted June 25, 2016 That's not something I want to see. I was awake during my bone graft / leg fracture repair and the sound was enough to freak me out! Sent from my KFFOWI using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valentina 2,642 Posted June 25, 2016 I have the video of my knee replacement, so why not? Go for it. The most he/she can say is, "no". Let us know, because we're nosy... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jess9395 5,449 Posted June 25, 2016 Oh yikes! Can't imagine anything I'd want to see less, LOL. But if you want it why not ask? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
silverthreads 183 Posted June 25, 2016 My surgeon gave me several pictures including my brand new tiny stomach. Sorta cool actually, so long as you're OK seeing internal organs, blood vessels and fat deposits. Wasn't gory at all.

I go in Monday for my final pre-op appointment to get all the surgery info for 7-6. That's not something I want to see.

I've watched several full length VSG procedures on youtube. Guts and blood don't disturb me. Oh yikes! Can't imagine anything I'd want to see less, LOL. But if you want it why not ask? I will when I go to the surgeon on Monday. Thanks all!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LipstickLady 25,682 Posted June 25, 2016 Nope. Not nosy here at all. I asked the questions when I had brain surgery and my doctor said no. His insurance doesn't allow it as it opens up the door to too many lawsuits.For some reason, I would have loved to see my brain. My stomach, organs and fatty tissue? NO THANKS.

Valentina 2,642 Posted June 25, 2016 @TheOdysseyOfAStoutman: Watching the video of my knee replacement was a great tool for the in-laws "having to go home early". (When I had in-laws) I think I'll ask for a video of my skin surgery. Now, THAT should really be grotesque! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
