I found this website informative. The second section talks about the Petersen Hernia. Please check it out. ;-) http://www.gastricbypassproblems.org/ HUGS Kimberly

I notice you had your surgery almost 4 years ago. Did this hernia just develop now this far out? I would not wait to get this taken care of - it can be life threatening!
