check with your Hemotologist, I've had several procedures and it totally can be taken care of if properly planned ahead. I am moderate Factor VIII that bleeds severe. If you have no hemotologist, contact your closest HTC. go to : https://www.cdc.gov/ncbddd/hemophilia/htc.html

Sorry, I know it's been awhile, and you may have had your procedure already. I have had extensive surgeries done, and with preplanning and my HTC doctor's orders in place, I have not had problems related to bleeding. Good luck to you

I know this is has been a while since your post, but my mother and I both have Von W. and both had the sleeve surgery. No issues at all with bleeding. I have had multiple surgeries and no issues except prolonged bleeding with wisdom teeth. We always plan infusions before after and for the next few days after.

Thank you for the replys.. each were helpful.. I feel more confident then I did before. Im just waiting on the okay to start the process..
