THAT DEPENDS ON A NUMBER OF THINGS.
THE SKILL OF THE SURGEON FIRST OF ALL. IF IT IS AT A TEACHING HOSPITAL, IT WILL TAKE TWICE AS LONG. A SKILLED SURGEON CAN REMOVE AN ARM AND CLOSE A FLAP OVER THE END OF THE BONE IN APPROX 45 MINUTES.
IF THE ARM IS AMPUTATED BUT NOT CLOSED, MORE LIKE 15 MINUTES. IF THERE IS CONCERN ABOUT INFECTION, OR MORE NECROTIC (DEAD) TISSUE, THEY WILL FREQUENTLY JUST REMOVE THE ARM AND PLACE A BULKY DRESSING AND COME BACK ANOTHER DAY TO CLOSE.

A guy wanted to make sure that the surgeon wud amputate his diseased, right arm. So he took a black marker n put an 'X' on his right arm. The doc noticed the 'X'....and cut the LEFT arm off with a surgeons' electric saw in 3.5 minutes.

Forget anything you have ever been told about Diabetes.
And get this - it has nothing to do with insulin, exercise, diet or anything else you've heard in the past. It's all based on latest breakthrough research that Big Pharma is going Stir Crazy to hide from you.
