Hi so sorry you too are having problems. I have had 5 failures. I just had total gastrectomy should of been partial. I hope you do your homework search of lots of dr and get advise. I’m trying to find new surgeon and gi because one gi said you have no options. I can’t breath have two hernias terrible left pain. Why do they make us suffer for so long til they say revision.

@thielman100 I had a Nissen nearly 6 years ago ...done by a surgeon in Central Iowa.. It was a total failure in that Mayo, MN diagnosed it as post operative gastroparesis ... I had lost 50 pounds within 2 months of the surgery and the local Docs and GIs were NO help.. Mayo found the trouble in a morning.. and they gave me a way to cope.. there is no way to repair or undo those hairnet like nerves that empty the stomach... That Healing Well.com website is difficult to find things as it is spread out so much using different links for different dates.. Good luck... I have gained back 30 pounds ...but every meal is a challenge.. forever.. Ken
