Re: Hungry? Not losing? Gaining? Dirty little secrets - (a bit long)

Go in with a cautery (or something) cause some damage to the stoma and when

it begins to heal it will scar. Scaring is used

in different areas of the body to fix other problems. I wonder if anyone's

thought of this? Seems simple enough.

** I thought someone said their doc was doing this like a year or so ago -

wasn't it in PA or maybe Jersey? I really do remember this being said on

the list. [check archives?]

the surgeons I'm with place a band around the pouch so it doesn't stretch -

I think thats a good idea since some have trouble with that as well.
