cool photo of healed VSG

I had an EGD (where they look inside your stomache with a camera) this week. I asked the doc to take a picture of my healed suture line, because I've always been curious as to what it looks like. It is neatly healed up, running along the bottom of the photo...a pale line in the sleeve.

That's so cool ! ! !

cool foto,

i always wanted to see what it looks like when healed.

thumbs up! :thumbup1:

Cajun,, you have a very nice looking sleeve..thanks

That is so neat!! I have pictures of my sleeve. I asked that they take before and after pictures during surgery. The body is just so amazing and resilient!

Thanks for the cool photo cajun, but i don't see the staple line. Where is it in this picture?

It is the paler orange line that extends diagonally along the bottom of the sleeve, starting at the lower left hand of the picture, going up toward the upper right hand of the picture.

Could you post it here so we can see what it looks like when it is new?

very good of you to share. I too wondered what it looked like. I have my Xray photo of my sleeve,but, nothing actually inside.

I can share this with my friends/interested people.

Thank you.

That is great. My wife will really like seeing this, and it may help her understand how completely the body heals.

She still suffers a little from anxiety about it truley being healed.

Wow that is amazing, thanks for sharing that. . . so cool!
