Long story short, I went for my 6 month Post Pulmonary Embolism check up so I can get off my Pradaxa and had a CT Scan last Monday, which was 10 days post Lap Band surgery. The paperwork read: "There is an unusual 4.4 x 2.7 cm lobulated focus of soft tissue density in the gastric lumen, abutting the lap band, of uncertain etiology - could represent a polypoid lesion in the stomach." My Hematologist failed to mention this, which totally angered me because she's also an Oncologist and the place that I was at was a Cancer Center! So, polypoid lesions could mean cancer, right? They should freaking mention it?!

Anyways, tomorrow my surgeon will be seeing the disk of pictures from the CT Scan that I picked up today. I looked at it myself, of course I have no idea what I'm looking at, but can you tell anything from this picture, or do you have to know how to read the other blob looking ones? Lmao. Ugh! It's killing meeeee!

Thanks for asking! I dropped the disc off today, hopefully I'll know more soon! Just trying to keep my head up and believe that if there was something out of place, especially that large, that my surgeon would of seen it when he was in there!

Just talked to my doctor! It was just irritation and what she the other lady saw was part of the band! Over a week of worry, I feel a million pounds lighter right now! Lol.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
