CT SCAN......
FINALLY got to schedule a CT Scan - this Friday; however after they told me that I would need to pick up the barrium to drink BEFORE the test - I explained to them that I was a gastric bypass patient and didn't think that would work...etc, etc...........
then they said I would need to get there 2 hours sooner to drink some clear liquid that would be mixed with crystal lite.....................
She referred to "the type of test" that they are giving me........gastriview ? is that the "stomach" view...............(looking for umbilical hernia AGAIN)
- Pease check out Dr. Connie Stapleton's Website. A lot of good information on there for all WLS patients regardless of the surgery you chose. Good luck to all and I'm here for you if you want to send me an email. I'll answer it as soon as possible.

NOthing too worry about. Having pains where OLD hernia is.......maye another hernia - they are trying to determine if what they saw on the ultrasound was the OLD hernia or a new one at the same spot (near belly button).....it hurts just like it did when I had the surgery
Hurts when I'm lifting anything.....when I get up in the morning - that is when it is most noticeable.
