I started to have pains in my stomach on Tuesday and went to the er that night. They did a cat scan and i had a piece of scar tissue that grew aound my intestines and cut them off so nothing could go down so it was backing up into my old stomach. They did surgery and i spent 3 days in the hospital I am home and on the mend butvey sore. I did a whole lot of puking Tuesday night in the hospital so my muscles hurt from that and thenthe surgery. I know my new stomach will hold now cuz if that did not rip it nothing will.
