The doctor found a benign mass on my liver during my 9/30 operation. And I am not allowed to take birth control pills anymore. It was good I learned it was there so I can keep an eye on it. Anyone else have stories like that.

I had scar tissue from four previous open abdominal surgeries. My sleeve surgery was 5 1/2 hours as my surgeon had to remove the scar tissue before she could proceed. Hoping for a good outcome for you.

OOO thats good to know about scarring. I have had a few surgeries and was told I had lots of scarring. So I guess I will warn my surgeon to expect alot just in case

I guess you have already told the surgeon about your previous surgeries, right? Not everyone forms scar tissue. She told me as she was completing the sleeve and leaving my tummy I was already forming scar tissue. So I guess I'm just made that way. All the best.

The camera that they inserted nick my mesenteric artery. I was bleeding a lot. The vascular surgeon came in an assisted in fixing it. I am fine. But I was very weak for a week post-op.

@@sa1976, count your blessings! That is serious and I'm so glad you had a team capable of dealing with a serious issue like that! So happy for you!

I had scar tissue as well but my surgeon knew about it before surgery. I had my spleen removed in 1962 & it interfered getting to the liver. I also had to have a hiatal hernia fixed. All said & done, everything went well. Still glad I had this surgery.

I had a tumor found on my liver during my preop testing, labs, ultrasound, several MRI's, they say it appears benign also and I pray they are right. I put my surgery off for one month because I wanted to know if I was ok, if I had cancer then I was not going to have my surgery. So happy they found it so now it can be monitored. Did they remove yours? Mine is small so unless it hurts they are leaving it untouched. And congrats on your surgery.

I had one, too. It was big and ugly so they took it out. Nothing was said about no longer taking BC pills, though.
