I have used dr. Goodman because my original surgery was botched by another doctor.  I am having bleed after bleed and my gastrointestinal doctors say it has to be reversed.  Did Dr. GOODMAN reverse your surgery?  Please let me know,  thanks!

You will be in my thoughts and prayers! Your a true fighter bless you and your family.A true inspiration! 

thos really isn't a complication of Wls since you havent had surgery yet. 

Most morbidly obese have a fatty liver,not uncommon. The masses in your liver on the other hand,if they are cancerous,will certainly put a hold on Wls until you have completed treatment for the masses. 

Hope all turns out well for you.

Wow,

In reading your story I am reliving mine!  Last year I went through the same things as you. For over a year I have been having issues with pain when I ate.  During my pregnancy I lost so much weight I was put on a PICC line and as soon as I delivered her they took out my gall bladder thinking that was the reason for the pain.  It was not.  I continued to see my doctor and several others with no answers.  Finally, I was rushed to the hospital with severe abdominal pain and vomiting nothing when I was sent into emergency surgery.  I too had a volvulus and almost died due to the amount of tissue that had died and all the bacteria in there from that.  I had two surgeries back to back. One was to reverse my RNY bypass then the other to finish cleaning up and check to see if my organs were returning to normal color.  They say this was due to an undetected hernia from my original RNY surgery in 2006.  So here I am a year later and have had no issues other than extreme rapid weight gain.  I entered the hospital last March at 155 and now weigh 255.  My eating habits have not changed due to having RNY successful for over 8 years and those habits still with me.  My doctor just says my body is now back to absorbing food the way it always has and offers no other help.  I am very thankful to be alive but dealing with being obese again has gotten me severely depressed.  Other than work, I avoid people like the plague!  I can see the look on their face when they see me and I have gotten so big so fast.  It is crazy!  I have been on diets and just like before surgery, they are not helping. I went on a month long extremely strict diet and GAINED 4 pounds!  I am at the end of my rope and have no options left.  I sincerely hope this does not happen to you.  Good luck to you!!!!

I just came across your post. I just came home a week ago on tpn . I would love to hear how you are.
