Strawberry17 2 Posted May 5, 2017 Hi I had gastric sleeve surgery 5 years ago. I lost a total of 110 lbs, but have gained back 20 lbs over the 5 yrs. Today, I had an Endoscopy because I started having nausea and vomiting on an empty stomach. My GI doctor was surprised to see a "blind pouch" at the sleeve suture line. Is this an appropriate forum to talk about long-term types of issues? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Strawberry17 2 Posted May 5, 2017 I'm not sure what a "blind pouch" is. We are consulting my surgeon about itThanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
