Petersen's Hernia
I had the Roux en Y 11/2009, revision 04/2010 due to ulcer then exploratory 11/2010, they repaired the ventral hernia that was repaired before, removed scar tissie and endometriosis. I have been in pain every since I have had ct scans x-rays, MRI ultra sound and severl EGD's they are all normal, The last few months has been bad . I have awful abdominal pain sometimes worse after eating, can't have a normal BM without straining. I have been reading up on the Petersens' hernia as I have lost 140lbs. Has anyone experienced this? PLease share.
Thanks

Those were my symptoms as well!!! My doctor just called it a herniated bowel obstruction that needed immediate repair. He said he removed 12 feet of bowel. Continue to get tests and even have an open exploratory surgery to make sure, is my recommendation. This is a life threatnening condition.
