Awesome, Just Fantastic! [Sarcasm]

Sorry to sound so sour, but I have just come back from a Gastroscopy (Thought it was called Endoscopy) anyways... Turns out I have a Hernia not sure if it is Hiatal since I was still dozy when Dr. Wang told me this all, but when you search for Stomach and Hernia all that comes up is Hiatal. And I have 5 polyps in my Stomach as well. They biopsied then and results soon, but I am sure it is fine!

So, my big question. Do you all think this will put a big stop to my surgery? Or does this information really have no bearing as my stomach will be sliced and diced anyways? I know for certain the Surgeon will need this report of course, and he will make those judgement to his discretion. Just very curious. Thank you 

The hernia won't slow down your surgery at all, They will just repair a hiatial hernia DURING your RNY. The polyps...if they are nothing...shouldn't slow it down either =)

I had read that on another part of the forums, that it can be repaired during the surgery. So that is a nice little bonus :) I guess I am laser focused, I really didn't expect anything to come today out of the lookie loo' in my stomach. LOL. Hope to soon being a Pouch! Thank you for the time to reply I appreciate it LittleMiss 

My husband had a hiatal hernia too noted on his endoscopy (known as gastroscopy OR endoscopy :) ) ... They said his was small, and that it is common in overweight people and often the cause of heartburn/reflux. This did not disrupt his RNY at all. 

He also had a polyp noted on his colonoscopy ... Biopsy came back negative, so no issues there either. The whole WLS process seems to take a long time, so they don't hold up the process waiting on results. He got his result long before his surgery date came. 

Your husband was in the same situation as me, I didn't have colon polyps though. I had a colonoscopy, not my choice, and it showed up nothing. Polyps both stomach or colon is good to get them viewed and then cut off. So either way I am happy! How is your husband doing after the surgery RNY-Wife? 

He really didn't want the colonoscopy either (lol) but has a family history of colon cancer, so they wanted to be sure everything was clear before surgery. 

He's doing really good, thank you for asking :) Still a little low energy I think ... Trying to remember portions and such ... He's lost about 40lbs now tho, b/w optifast and post-op. He's happy :)
