I was banded one week ago, and I have only two incisions - one, about two inches, over my port, and one tiny one, perhaps 2/3 of an inch, up high, near the bottom of my sternum. Nice job, doc!

    It looks like a 2 and then an S. Has to be a typo. There's no way they would keep someone under anesthesia for 25 hrs to do a procedure that normally takes less than an hour! If that's the case, I'll take my 5 small incisions anyday!:cursing:
