Something in my sleeve....

[Sannah 258]

Something is showing up in my sleeve. Doctor doesn't know what it is. Do you? Have you seen these?

They are the swollen ripples in the photo and bile that should not be present.

I have pain in the sleeve, nausea and trouble eating.

If your docs don't know what it is they will probably consult some other docs. Sometimes the consulting ends up here: http://my.clevelandclinic.org/florida/departments/general_surgery/bariatric/default.aspx

The Cleveland Center in Florida is one of the best in the world. My 1rst class surgeon studied there.

At least they found something to work with. I'm sure your dr will find the answer. Is it possible your first, not so nice, surgeon did something wrong? Or do they think it developed post op?

Folds in the suture line? Although I assume your dr would recognise that. Most drs have access to some sort of mentor/senior group and can refer cases for review. Ask your dr if he/she plans to do that ? Or what other steps can be taken.

Part of the Rugae? Part of the fundus left behind?

I had this very question and it's on my list to ask the dr Monday. Creepy!!!! Right! I am also asking if this was seen in my earlier endoscopes. I hope to find some answers.

I am going to ask because I need to know what to expect in the future. What is they get larger!!! Yikes.

Darn Vst. The photo isn't working. What is Rugae? I would love to know what this stuff is.

It's the ridges found on the natural stomach lining

Part of the fundus.

I had my husband look at it... When he was still in school he worked with a gastroenterologist and did lots of scopes.

But I don't know... I do hope they figure it out Sannah and I'm sorry that you have yet one more setback

Take care Sannah and give Venla hugs and kisses from that crazy lady Laura.

Happy Mothers Day!!

I hope so as well!! I am feeling bummed and defeated. I was told my sleeve was abnormally small, so it would be weird for any normal parts to be left behind. I am going to ask to be sure. This would be a great solution, because it would mean nothing is wrong. This would be so great!! thanks for telling me!! a little hope!!

Sannah, why is your sleeve abnormally small? Was it cut that way intentionally? By accident? I ask because I have a similar situation, though in my case it was not intentional.

Hello.

This is a very good question. I have no answers. I no longer see my surgeon. I am going to ask my current dr when I see her Friday after my upper gi. What happened with yours?

[taylokat 180]

When they did the endoscopy, did they biopsy the area?

Sannah - please update us as to your progress - I have read your story and I am so sorry that all this happened to you. Am sending positive thoughts to you and your family
