Large stoma

Ok, I wasnt going to post until I was sure... BUT Im half way there now.. and since this topic is coming out more and more I wanted people to know there is 'hope' I have a large stoma - the upper gi confirmed no pouch function; etc etc... MY surgeon was sucessful this week in putting on the lap band. After it is tighened it will act as my new stoma. I have to wait at least a month before THAT happens; but at least he was sucessful in placing the band. So there is hope now.... if you are suffering from the large stoma issue; talk to your surgeon.
