vicki s reacted to lsereno in Have to be re-sleeved!
In the long term study I found, some patients experience growth of a neofundus. Maybe you were sleeved correctly, but this neofundus may have grown since then.
Here's an article with pics:

The mesh is a different issue. Mesh hernia repairs are tricky.
If you can get a second opinion, that would make you feel better.

Oh and let's see if we can get this moved to the veterans forum...
I noticed a lot of your old interactions are with people that are still around but are mostly on the veterans forum. Is that ok?

vicki s got a reaction from whitneymalae in 1 in 200 die ?
Hi , I just want to say you remind me of myself a couple weeks ago, i was terrified of a leak and still am since I'm only 10 days out, i was sooooo scared i was ready to cancel my surg. but i did obviously go ahead with it, the odds seem right because 1 in 200 is 1/2 percent, but it also means you have a 199 out of 200 chance of being ok. I am not telling you what to do, that is a decision only you can make, i just wanted to let you know, your not alone with the fear factor and i also just wanted to flip the number so you could see the other side of the odds...good luck to you and let us know how you make out in your decision...
