Dilated pouch

Anyone have a problem with a dilated pouch? What happens? I go this week to have a barium swallow to see if my pouch is dilated and if I have hiatel hernia.

Hi Kathy I haven't had this problem - I hope all goes ok when you have your tests. please let us know. What symptoms are you having? Ruth

dON'T Know what excately a dilated pouch is......but my husband had a hiatel hernia before his surgery and the Dr. fixed it for him when he had his surgery...just pulled it down!?? Good luck!

Hi Karen yeh, I too had a hiatus hernia before wls which got fixed by wls - it's in the unused portion of stomach now and I've had no problems with it since - like a miracle cure. Good to see you - how are things? Having a rest over the summer break? Mindyou I bet the children keep you busy... Does you huband have another job now?

not sure what you mean by a dilated pouch, can you tell us more about this please? When did you schedule the barium swallow for? How are you doing otherwise? Andi
