I Am Due To Have Surgery On May 27th. My Doctor Lets You Decide Which One You'd Rather. So, I Would Like To Know Which One Did You Choose? And Why?

Oh Delarla! I know what you meant but now I have this mental picture of someone with a clear panel tummy like you can get on your computer tower. Saying look! I have the pink floyd band! and it does the pink floyd light show! oooooo hehe thats a new kind of nightclub attire! hehe

sitting here giggleing thought I'd share my mind warp

Maybe the choice was just between VG versus non-VG band?

I have the Vangard. I was banded with the smaller band on 5.2.06, it slipped immediately (intense pain! but the slippage was probably not because of the smaller band just a very rare event, lucky me) and when my Doc told me he had to go back in on 5.5.06, I asked for the VG band. He said he'd decide which band when he got in and he decided on the VG. His reasons were that the smaller band had slipped and there was some damage and the VG band would allow it to heal faster. That was all I needed to be happy with the VG. It may be harder to get the sweet spot with fills but hopfully easier on my stomach is better in the long run.

Here is a tread on the size of bands:
