During my last endoscopy when they dilated a couple of strictures that i had, the Dr found a small hole in my suture line. My surgeon in Mexico tested for leaks the day after surgery & I'm not having any issues right now but they want to do another endoscopy & go in & put on a clip to make it heal closed. I'm looking for guidance because my surgeon in Mexico said he sutured & stapled so what they are seeing is probably a spot on the suture that did not heal closed but the stomach is also stapled closed so unless i was experiencing great pain he really doubts its a hole in the suture line. I would love to hear if anyone else has experienced anything similar.
