Is this the best forum for me?

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?

There's a Maintenance forum (https://www.bariatricpal.com/forum/1206-maintenance-forums/), as well as a Complications (?) forum...but you can post anywhere and someone will see it and answer :) Welcome!

Curious. What's a blind pouch? I don't see why you couldn't post here or anywhere you want. :)

I'm not sure what a "blind pouch" is. We are consulting my surgeon about it

Thanks
