Perforated Pouch?

I had an endoscope about a month ago, and ever since I have had a difficult time holding down food. I am 5 years out and never had problems before. The endoscope showed pre -ulcers. Has anyone else this far out had this problem? I was wondering if the doctor could have perforated my pouch.

It is very unlikely (and a perforated pouch wouldn't necessarily cause vomiting anyway... Or, depending on where the perforation is would cause the same symptoms as a leak), but it definitely sounds like you need to get back in to see the doctor.

What are you doing to treat the pre-ulcers? The vomiting might be because that condition has worsened into actual ulcers.
