@ghostwriter Not to worry. Often doctors write things they may think about as possibilities in medical notes. That doesn't mean it is something conclusive, it's just their thoughts and description at the time. They don't have a reason to make things up in surgical notes. I don't know if that would show up on an MRI or not as medicine often isn't an exact science. It's an art of looking at various clues and drawing a conclusion. Some times it's a suggestion of a direction for further advice. One thing that is certain is that surgery creates scar tissue. If you are really concerned, you might want to ask your provider. It sounds like you are doing well which is the important piece.
