Experiencing Bad Pain. History Of Double Pancreas And Intestinal Surgery Done A Way Before To Promote Digestion. Side Effects Of Surgery?
Susan YYYY@YYYY
Twenty two years ago I had surgery where the Dr. took 18 ins. of my small intestine & looped it through my stomach twice so my food would digest. I have a double pancreas & it has wrapped around my organs so my food was not digesting. Not sure of the name of the organ think it was my Duodenum???? (not sure of the spelling)
I am now having terrible pains we think it is due to this surgery. The Dr. whoe did the surgery had never done it before so could not tell me the long term prognosis. He said at the time there was only 200 in the world & he had to follow instructions from a text book.
Maybe you can tell me more, I am going for a CAT scan next tuesday.
Sincerely Susan F.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
It is twenty years gone for surgery, so present problem may not be related to surgery, certain medical anomalies some time proves very un-natural , unlikely, very strange, become difficult to get repairs, only very experience very competent surgeon can do this, you better consult such surgeon for further advise and management, have nice day.
