Guest guest Posted April 20, 2007 Report Share Posted April 20, 2007 Yes, I have a Roux-y and was stented many, many times before transplant. I had over 25 stents put in within little less than a three year period, it was the only way to keep me going, so they said. Since I found out Tuesday that the disease has reoccured, they have started me back on ursidol, which I took before transplant. They told me that since I had a roux-y that instead of the " normal " stenting procedures, if I ever had to be stented, it would have to be done through PTC instead of an ERCP and it would be what they call an inner- outer stent. Hope this answers some of your questions. Nikki TX 12/25/2004 Diaginosed with recurrent PSC 04/17/2007 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
