"My staple line breakdown caused my bypass to totally fail. I have a whole stomach again, instead of the little pouch. The doctors tried to fix it with a second surgery, but I had another staple line breakdown. I dont know how to explain it any better, Im sorry. So, instead of losing weight by having a small pouch, I have a whole, regular sized stomach...which means I have to diet and exercise to lose more weight."
I guess I'm also missing what happened. The way I understand it your new pouch is seaperate from your old stomach with a bypass so if the staples failed it would open up the pouch but not to the old stomach. I also don't see how a staple failure could happen twice. The whole thing sound strange. What ever happened to you it's a shame. Hopefully you'll keep off your 100 lbs and lose some more!
