I read a thread and someone suggested viewing a 5 part video showing the lap band procedure. I highly recommed it, it is very imformative and I personally got a lot out of it. I had attended a seminar that showed stills, this shows it all. Of course everyone's Doctor has their own procedure, put a lot of my questions were answered.

I know a few of you may have already seen this, but for me it was new.

If you go to Youtube and key in " Live Lap Band surgery - Kansas City ", there are 5 parts and it takes about an hour to watch. It is a quality video of a complete lap band surgery. The Doctor explains everthing while he is working.

Let me know what you think.

Caution - No blood and guts, but it does show an actual surgery.

Take care everyone - :thumbup:

I LOVED that video. The more I can learn about this, the less scary it is to me.

Good luck to all Septembers!!!

I know you said that it doesn't have any blood and guts...but I'm too sweemish!! Just the thought of the knife on the skin is too much for me. I was never able to watch a c-section delivery because it was just too much for me...and I've had 3 c-sections!! I'm not scared of the surgery just looking at it.

Thats okay, we all have our "quirks".

Someone was telling me about a work related accident, just words, and I amost passed out. Blood I can do, but words. I must be a sickie, I love watching Discovery Health.

What is up with that?
