hi kindof a newbie here

I am 3 weeks post op now well sorta my second surgery was 3 weeks ago. My first was nov. 15th , but I had to have the surgery over again. becaus when my surgeon put my bowel back on he turned it 360 degrees. So I had a really hard time. But I am on the mend now and let me tell you there is such a difference in what and how much I can eat. Oh yea also the new doctor who fixed my problem also said that my pouch was not made small enough so he had to make that smaller too. But now I'm able to get my water in and my food. I'm feeling alot better too. So on top of all that I have lost 61 pounds. yea

Hi there, I was wondering if you would be willing to share more about the mistake the surgeon made....I am curious because I had the same surgeon. Please feel free to email me privately. Thank you! Missy [email protected]
