Migrated staples?
I had emergency surgery to remove my gallbladder and appendix last week, and while doing the exploratory bit of the surgery, they found that staples from my RNY had migrated inside and were catching food. I've NEVER heard of this happening. I'm about 6 days post op from that surgery and I feel like absolute poop. I feel like I did after my RNY in 2005. I'm an emotional mess. I have my tummy tuck scheduled for February 8 and that's the last thing I want to go through right now because I feel so crappy.
Is anyone familiar with migrated staples? I can't find out much about it online.

I am interested in how they migrated and where they migrated to. I havent had any complication but my staples on an xray look jagged. Can you give a bit more detail? Thanks!!
