Thanks everyone...yes I saw it and was shocked...finally someone like me...dont wish it on anyone, but am not feeling quite so alone anymore...Thanks for all the links, I guess it does happen for one reason or another...lets hope none of us have to deal with this anymore...

Vicki! so sorry to hear this. Best of luck getting is sorted out the next time.

When I asked my doc what size bougie he used to size my sleeve, he told me he made the pylorus end wider than the rest... not sure how much wider... I have had trouble losing all my weight, but I don't get the feeling that my stomach is still getting bigger. He told me that people with more room at the pylorus end have less problems with keeping food down.... have read about Bezoars! Don't want one of those!
