hi all,
I was a lap band to DS patient, I had a UGI 2 weeks ago, the last one I had was pre DS, so years ago, interestingly my fundoplication was not taken down, even though in my operative reports explant surgery it says that it was. Also interestingly when I had my DS the surgeon didn't take it down (and there is no mention in my operative report that there was an issue taking it down, so I have no idea why it was left, and if left for medical reasons, why it was not mentioned in the operative report) I had my band removed and my stomach "rested" for about 6 months before I had the DS, so that may be a reason my vsg is too large, but who knows. and yes I had a vetted DS surgeon.... Just wondering who has had a fundoplication, who has had it taken down....etc....thanks...
