Guest guest Posted November 17, 2002 Report Share Posted November 17, 2002 I've had bowel obstructions, I've had adhesions and I've had a fistula. they are all extremely painful. but when I went to the ER and the local surgeon offered that he'd stick me in a room and later do a little 'exploratory' look see, I hightailed it out of there and went back to my surgeon who did the RNY and she immediately took me into surgery and fixed the problem. I would not be waiting around whether its obstruction or fistula. I would find a surgeon who will operate now. thats just my opinion though having been there, done that. sue > > I had posted the other day, asking if anyone has ever or has a hole > > in the pouch.
