Could internal scarring be causing me to not be able to hold any solid or pureed food
I had my lap surgery on 9/30/03 and was fine until mid-May. I could no longer hold any solid or pureed foods. I became dehyrated from vomiting if I ate any food thicker than clear liquids. In the past 6 wks I have had 5 upper endoscopies with dialation and I am scheduled to have another one next week. After my first upper endoscopy, I was advised I had an ulcer and was given medication. My surgeon did a revision on me 7/8/04 whereby he reconnected my stomach to my small intestine. He told me he has never had a patient with this problem--this really scares me. My question is has this happened to anyone and could it possible be from scarring internally? I am at wits end now and need to stop losing wt. I have also been sent to the ER 3 times this past month so I can get rehydrated. I need help asap. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I have been living on Isopure since mid May. Thank you! Patti
