I has WLS 13 years ago. I recently had an endoscopy and they found 4 holes from my new stomach into my old (native) stomach. Has anyone had problems with this?  Thanks so much.

Do you know if your stomach was transected? It should say on your operative report. If you were, then they're fistulas. If you weren't they're *probably* staple-line disruptions.
