Lap Band during that Time of the Month?

OK... I have looked all over these message boards in the hopes that I wouldn't have to be the one to ask this question. Is it possible to get the lap band procedure done if it is your time of the month?

    Actually, YES... you can have the LapBand surgery during your "time of the month." I'll be banded on Friday (and happen to be "on it" this week) and the doctor said to just wear a tampon. He stated no maxipads are allowed - due to the fact that during surgery you cannot wear underwear. Hope that helps answer your question! :smile2:
