I have been having some abdominal pain, and the CT scan showed inflammation. My doctor decided I needed an exploratory laparoscopy to rule out internal hernia and other scary things. So I had surgery on tuesday. He said there was some scar tissue causing the intestines to adhear to each other, so he freed them. But here is the weird thing, he said my mesenatry was very floppy and it is basically allowing my small intestines to flop around in there, which could be causing me pain. The mesentary should be tight and hold the intestines and internal organs in place. He said with my massive weight loss, it is loose now and things are shifting around. Have you ever heard of this before? He made a comment that I will have to keep a food journal and see if certain foods make it worse. I'm totally confused, how would food make a difference, doesn't he have to go in and tighten it up. I have a post op appointment next week to ask. Has this happened to any one?
