Have any of you injured your pouch?
Have any of you ever injured your pouch badly enough to undo your surgery? I have been having intermittent, burning -pain for two weeks. I got into my surgeon and was given a "worse case scenario" and another possible scenario. Either I have an ulcer & he started me on prevacid yesterday....OR....he also suspects that because of where my pain is & how much food that I can hold that possibly I have lost some staples and permanently damaged my pouch. He said it can happen and that is a possibility on me. I had a very severe bout of vomiting a few weeks ago, but I am four months out now. I'm terribly worried and I am also a self pay. He also said that maybe my 95 pounds off will be enough to keep me on track and I will keep on going with modified behavior. Anybody? Comments? Thanks.
