Stomach Stretching or enlarged stoma??
Hi, I'm glad to see the posts regarding the loss of fullness when eating and those who don't dump. I was just scanning the Q&A's, after being absent from this site for a couple of months, for the answer to the same question. I am 10 months post op and have gained 10 lbs since losing 100. I sure feel great but I am also worried since I don't dump from eating sugar and don't get a full feeling much anymore. I am worried that my stomach has stretched. I didn't think of the enlarged stoma problem. I have been really worried about my stomach stretching. Has anyone else had stomach stretching or heard of it happening. Am I right to be worried? Should I have an endoscopy performed to acertain the size of my stomach and stoma.? Believe it or not, I can handle the enlarged stoma, but am a little freaked about a stretched stomach. Regarding the non-dumping... I realize I have to cut out sugar all together. One bite is too many, 10 are not enough. I'm relieved to see I'm not the only one.
