After my MALS surgery I had a a few months without symptoms, but they returned.
The surgery had removed the ligament’s pressure on the celiac artery but the ligament had formed a permanent indentation on the artery- less blood flow. They placed a stent to keep it open- all symptoms gone.
At some point you should discuss your misery with the surgeon.

interesting! i discussed my pain with my surgeon last month and she said there is nothing else she can do for me, so she referred me back to my gastro. BUT she never did a follow up ultrasound to see if the blood flow returned to normal . . . so maybe there's something wrong? i ended up having my gastro schedule a doppler ultrasound for January 10th so we'll see how everything is.

how did you find out that the ligament formed an indentation? was it through a doppler ultrasound or something else?
