Caution: Video of a surgery!

[Roheryn 0]

Now I know this isn't for everyone but I found it interesting. :smile: It isnt' too gory (it was more how rough the doc seemed that got to me more) but if you are concerned about it seeing it before you go to have it, DON'T WATCH!! Those who have had the surgery may want to see it...

This is a video of a surgery and it is in 5 parts...

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHzljCq2jbk&feature=related]YouTube - Live Lap-Band® Surgery Part 1 of 5 - Kansas City[/ame]

alternatively go to you tube and search on 'Lapband surgery Kansas City'!

There is a section in Part 4 about 8minutes 50 seconds in where the doc explains the band used and why he chose it! (he is just stitching up the holes and you can't see anything really at this point so those who were trying to decide on a band, you may want to listen...I don't know if it will help...

I can also after watching this understand why the port area is sorest!!! :wub:
