Does anybody know if there is ever any complications with the titanium staples that they use to sew you up for the gstric sleeve? They stay in you forever, so I was just wondering if anyone ever has complications life long from them. I worry that it is a foriegn body in the stomach?

I have been thinking about it also. The metal gave me no problems, but any internal stitches I have had have always work their way out of my body. My orthopedic surgeon said my body just won't absorb them. Anyway, maybe we can find out some more about the staple. Lets research some more and keep in touch.
