My doctor found multiple stomach polyps on EGD. Biopsy was done of one. It was hyperplastic which means it is not normally cancerous. He gave me option of roux-en Y regular, or roux-en y with gastrostomy tube left in for 2 months and then removed in case they need to look in the remaining stomach down the road sometime. Has anyone heard of this or had the gastrostomy tube placed? My surgery is 4/26 so I am trying to find out as much as I can about the options. Thanks in advance.
Dear Carol,
I hope you get better soon, but this NJ site doesn't get nearly as many hits as the nationwide message board does. So I think it would behoove you to post this message on the message boards (located on the top of this page). Who is your surgeon? I'm new to this whole thing (i'm 6 weeks out), so I think you should get a 2nd opinion or at least post it.
Good Luck
