Well, here I am. 2yrs and 2months out. Thought I knew it all. Had a few complications, but all in all I've done ok. I lost 110lbs................Until about 6 months ago when I figured out I could eat sweets and greasy foods without dumping! I slowly started eating "slider" foods because strangely enough, I got nauseous everytime I tried to eat meat, fish or chicken. So finally, the surgeon sent me to a specialist to have a barium swallow test. Well, more good news. I have a small fistula in my pouch. I have had 3 upper Endoscopy's to try to close it with clips and surgical glue. Yep, glue! That hasn't been succsessful either. So my choices are: do nothing, see another Boston Dr. who performs a new procedure Endoscopically where he sutures it shut, or have a RE-DO. My surgeon says my weightgain is not from the hole. He says it is too small. So if in fact that is true, I should be taking advantage of this "headstart" that I have been given and get back on the horse that got me here!!!!! I need to gather up the confidence once again and follow the rules of the game. I have an appointment with my NUT and I am going to start attending the support group that is offered by my surgeon. I learned a valuable lesson..........I DON'T KNOW EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT WLS !!!!!
