I had wrote on here a while back about not being able to eat and about some pain. I had my bypass surgery 2 years ago. The long and short of it, I had a ulcer in my pouch. It had grown so large that it attached to my liver. intestines and bowel. The Dr. had to do a 3 1/2 hour surgery to correct all of it. He wouldn't even let me go home, he said it was so close to the wall it could preforate any minute. I was very fortunate and I praise the Lord for His watch care. Don't wait if you have problems or questions. Seek help right away.

I forgot to say the doctor had to remove most of my pouch. Now it is less than a ounce until the swelling goes down and I have to start all over with the diet. Uck!

Watch the acid foods you may eat and monitor your stress. Mine was caused because I was producing too much acid. He clipped the nerve that produces this acid for normal stomach working.
