Uh oh

Had to get an endoscopy today as part of the process to get the sleeve in June. Got some bad news today, they found a lot of gastric erosion caused by the aspirin I take daily. Have to take prioslec and see him in two weeks. Might have the beginning of an ulcer. Now the Big Question... Is this going to kill the sleeve surgery altogether? I have to see my surgeon on Friday. I have no idea what this means.

I've had duodenal erosion in the past (too much ibuprofen) and it healed once I backed off on the NSAIDs. It wasn't right before my surgery though. Did you ask your surgeon this question?

Haven't experienced this personally but a woman in my support group had the same problem. They actually found an ulcer. They had to treat it and it set her back a month. She was to be sleeved on March 6, now she's scheduled for April 10. So it shouldn't keep you from getting it, it just might delay it a bit. Hope this helps :)
