CrissCriss 97 Posted October 15, 2017 Has anyone thought of or have asked their doc about keeping the part of the stomach thats being cut away? 1 Rainbow_Warrior reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
walleyecrazy 120 Posted October 15, 2017 To be honest with you that thought did cross my mind for a second. That’s all it ended up being for me though was a passing thought and I never truly gave it serious consideration. 2 ILOVETEXAS210 and Rainbow_Warrior reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's routine with the two surgeons in this practice. They do a quick photo session ... 3 or 4 angles. Then the stomach piece goes off to the pathology lab for testing and reports. Some of that data is kept for a regional longitudinal study. 2 ProudGrammy and KarenOR reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Walter.Sobchak 978 Posted October 15, 2017 I kept mine and then ate it once I was able to eat soft foods, kinda weird I know. I felt as though I had to, as a rite of passage. 1 ILOVETEXAS210 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Walter.Sobchak 978 Posted October 15, 2017 Lol.....Your totally kidding right? Yeah, just trying to be funny. I would have liked to have seen pictures of it. My surgeon told my wife that my stomach was huge. I believe it, I could easily eat a large pizza in one sitting with no issues. 3 Sosewsue61, Nataliesmom and ILOVETEXAS210 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mhy12784 423 Posted October 16, 2017 They put your stomach in formalin which is basically poison, not to mention its surely a pietri dish for bacteria. They all look mostly the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
