Internal Hernia
Hi everyone!
I had my gastric bypass done on 12-31-08 and just had surgeryl last Monday.. for an internal hernia (my bowels were twisted as well the surgeron said !) I have had a couple of complications.. but. I was wondering why a hernia????? Is it something that just happens or is it something i did wrong????? If someone knows about hernias... I would appreciate some output here :) thanks!!

Oh April...you could NEVER do any wrong! :)
Our friend Chrissy and you had hernia surgeries just days/weeks apart and I suspect from some pain I've been experiencing, I might have one as well. I've read a lot on these boards from people who have experienced hernias -- it's definitely a risk associated with WLS, but not all people suffer the complication.
I hope you're feeling better with each passing day!! I'm fairly local, so let me know if there's anything I can do! PS/There's an Inconvenient Get Together in the Union area this Wednesday...let me know if you want more details...I'd love to see you again! :)
