I'm sorry if this picture grosses anyone out, but I thought I would show y'all why I was so sick! This is the inside of my stomach, the picture on the left is what my stomach looked like beforehand. The tiny tiny opening at the bottom is about the size of an eraser on a pencil. That is the opening that all my food was supposed to go through after eating.
The picture on the right is what my stomach looks like now and is SUPPOSED to look like. As you can see the opening for my food to pass through is MUCH MUCH bigger.
So its really no wonder I was so sick and in so much pain all this time!! I am so glad I had this done again. God bless Botox!!!!
My GI specialist said that his partner at IU Med Center is actually specializing in this field of delayed stomach emptying.. (It has a fancy name, I just can't spell it!!) So I think I will be paying him a visit in the next few months to see if there is anything other than this surgery that I can do to feel good.
JESUS IS COOL!!
