I am sure glad they figured out what was happening to you and could fix it. I can't imagine the pain. My doctor suggested that I wear a medical allert bracelet saying "Gastric Bypass - no blind scoping". I think its good to have especially when you can't speak for yourself. I awoke from surgery with an NG tube and pulled it out after 2 days - they can't put one back in after GBP without being real careful. Thanks for posting your experience - I don't know if there is anything we can do now to help avoid this situation in the future.
