Sorry Guys,

I should've known that because only 1% of us expereinces a fistula

very few of you would have any clue as to what I should ask my

surgeon Thursday. I was just hoping out of 2000+ members somebody

would have delt with one or is dealing with one shows you how rare

it really is. I do talk to Barb in Kansas all the time and we both

have the same surgeon go figure. I am curious those that had

revisions or SLD's were you able to eat again right after or did you

have to start over and for how long just like in the begining or was

it a little different? I will let you all know how the appointment

goes and what he has to say. I am scared because every surgery I

had before was done laprascopically except the spleen. That was

only a 6 " incision now we are talking open all the way from sternum

to navel. One of my concerns is pain I do have a high tollerence of

pain but I am also allergic to demerol and morphine so any one else

allergic what did you get for pain?

Thanks,

Kristy
