Due to amistake by a dr who does rny and lap band surgery. I have to go out of state. To see a dr who does rare hernia surgery. Which will induce lifting the bladder and placeing mesh under it and having to sew all of my stomach muslces back together. I was wondering if any one had this type of surgery and how long it took to feel better How this happen I had surgery back in oct due to massive stomach pains for three weeks. So when open me up they found it was not anything to due with my rny surgery. But I had a jelly coating all over my stomach append. and my right lower colon which they had to remove. Three after that surgery I found a incision hernia due to the surgery. i had to wait four months to have it removed due to work and insurnace reason. They went in and meshed the upper have of the stomach and refused to due the lower half because of ll of the work it in tail Then three weeks after that surgery I saw his PA and complained of pain and she order a cat scan to see what was going on. But was made to call and tell me that he refused to sign the orders for work. And that I could go back to work. Three days back to work I called and complained of pain and throwing up in which they. Had me go for stat blood work and a stat cat scan. Only to find out that hernia was coming out of the mesh in the lower stomach ( yeah right 80,000.00 wasted on that mesh) Only to hear say he would be more  than willing to due the surgery as soon as I wanted him to. MY rny dr down state is floored by what happen in my home town and the only reason he did not due the first i=surgery is because i was unable to make the trip down state because they where not sure how life threaten it was. And the hernia surgery made have this dr due it because it was his that caused the the hernia. Ok so I found a wonderful dr down state who does rare hernias. and he informs me back here they just patch the tire. And now he has to go in and rebuild the whole car. Meaning he has to sew all of the six packmuslces back and place lift the bladder and place the meshwhere it was suppose to be in the first place and sew me back up again. Which will take the poor dr six hours or more to do

Years ago my first husband and I had a roommate who was not a very great house cleaner.  When I went to move out I could not get the stain out of the toilet.  Yeck.  One can of coke in there overnight after turning off the water and it was sparkley and white. 

That being said, I do love my Coke Zero.  One a day.

My problem occurred at the beginning. I was so sick after RNY in June. I had a g-tube and the drainage kept coming up around it and all over everything. When I drank liquids it would come out. I kept telling the doctor something was wrong, but they felt the swelling at the connection was inhibiting the flow. So they sent me home. I live 450 miles away. I was back in the hospital 3 days later and had a small bowel resection because I had an incarcerated hernia. Ahh I felt better, but my potassium was also very low 2.2, just to scare you these low potassiums can kill a person.
Anyway I came home and was better, but worse. I felt like I was anemic and after about a week it had gotten to a point where I needed help to go to the bathroom. I called my regular doctor and she could not see me but said I should go to the er. So, I did. Some nurse kept making a big deal about my fingers because they were blue. Now, I thought she was crazy because there was so little light in the room I could not figure out how she could see them. Anyway the ER doctor could not figure out what was wrong with me. I was not short of breath, but she felt I had had a lung embolism. The cat scan was negative. She finally asked me to walk down the hall with her and she notice how weak I got. She had an ABG done and the blood was brown not red. Well, I made her day. She said it was a disease process they learn about in school but never expect to see because it is so rare. I had some kind of drug induced anemia called Methemaglobin anemia. I had every doctor in the place stop by and see me. I was in the hospital for 3 days and they decided not to treat it because once the drug was stopped it should clear up by it's self. Well, it did but it seemed like it was forever. I still get physically tired after a strenuous day like being in the car for 4 hours. But I can cook and dress and do most everything for myself now. I can even drive by myself. Though I have to admit there are days I am not sure I should be.
We don't know exactly where or when the anemia started but I am glad it is behind me.
So, Take care of yourself and be glad they can figure out these things so easily. Just be careful not to get to many cat scans in one year they are kind of high in radiation.

Not that I know of, is that an imaging test or blood test? Is it possible to have stones just in the duct? Don't they take that out when they remove the GB?  That would explain why my pain didn't go away after they took it out. 

Have they done a test called MRCP to rule out bile duct stones? I wish you the best! Katrina
