Hi. I hope someone can help me with advice re:a painful swollen lump
which can be felt exactly across a large scar left from gall bladder surgery 25 years ago (key hole surgery wasn't an option at that time).My G.P. referred me to a specialist early 2006.I was given a gastroscopy and
was diagnosed as having a stomach hernia and lower duedenal problems I have gained alot of weight round my stomach and hips yet I've been unable to eat a meal for several years now,I've been surviving on a slice of toast 3 times a day as eating causes pain followed by vomiting and diarrhoea.I'm being treated for High Blood Pressure and have been advised to lose weight but I can't,how can I when I'm unable to keep food down???..I become very distressed as the pain in my stomach is alway's apparent becoming very intense every day..I'm a 54 year old female..Yours Sincerely..Mary
