    I have a corn on my foot ..it was a little tender whilst I had the device fitted. The corn was more uncomfortable than the device being fitted..it took 4 minutes. 5 max. The numbing was no more painful than a bee sting. I was extremely impressed. No recovery required .left hospital after the tech side was set up..and drive home. If I had heard this video first..I'd have been nervous. It's very quick and they are brilliant.

    I have one of these in my chest now. The incision is so small I can barely see it. It stung a little when they numbed me up but that was it. Nothing to it. If you have to have one of these don't worry about it, there is nothing to it.

    Mine was very painful afterwards but the actual procedure for me wasn't painful at all.

    I am having one on 2/5. Pretty nervous about it. When they say "some discomfort", how long is that for? Can you see it? Like a bulge under your skin?

    The procedure to fit the loop was horrendous! It was hideously painful and the doctor said it was the worst one he had done! Being told it was just a 'simple 10/15 procedure and not painful' was a complete LIE! He used a trowel like instrument and even got a larger size half way through.I am having it removed because it is in my breast and not upper chest,( I am female). The doctor said if I need a Pacemaker or something in future it will be a full anaesthetic. It feels like a cigarette packet shoved into my left breast, it is awful.
