You remember a few months ago when I said I may need keyhole for the pouch, there is a pouch but nothing inside it, it has a name for it but been told by the specialist do not google it. (she drew me and my parents a little diagram)

2% of the population have this sort of pouch and probably most people don't know there have it, without having tests and scans.

I been asked how I been lately. I still get the old pain now and again.

At least it nothing serious, but than again no doubt the poster about pancreatic cancer awareness month will set me up for another worry.

Many thanks for your support over the last year. I will still be on the site.

That's great! Hey, how about you decide that this time the poster will make you think, "Yey! I am so lucky!" ;)

Just a thought! x

Is the pouch meckels? If so, my husband had it removed by keyhole surgery last week along with his appendix. 2% of the population have it and its completely benign. A small pouch on the intestine? I assume that's what you're talking about?
Glad to hear you don't need surgery but if it happens that you ever do, hubby is home and recovering well.

I think this is the one which the specialist though I had from the sig camera job, so last year wanted to double check with a nuclear camera scan.

Ah right.. my husband didn't even know he had it. He needed an appendectomy last week and they found this so removed them both.
Great if you don't need it removed.. but I wouldn't worry about it, its harmless :)
