It shouldn't be. Just make sure you tell the nurse while they are prepping you. They will give you like a mesh panty and a pad to wear during surgery.

P.s: Congrats on your surgery!!!:thumbup::thumbup::laugh:

Nope you will be fine ... I had my period during surgery. They gave me mesh panties and a big ole pad . you will be fine !

Lots of luck and wishes for a speedy recovery!!! Congrats on your surgery today :thumbup:

Nope. It won't even be an issue because you'll have a cathiter (sp?) - when that comes out, just handle it like you normally do. You will be moving really slow though!! Good luck!:thumbup:

Nope, not a problem at all. Good luck!

Rarely do people get catheters during Lapband surgery..I've only heard of a few people who have. Either way, it's never a problem. Good luck with your surgery! Hoping for a quick recovery.
