My Fiance ate of all things:Chicken Bones and ever since(over a month and half)has been Vomiting Blood,in pain and losing his appetite which has resulted in weight loss.He finally went to the Doctor(stubborn Man)and had X-Rays taken.The Doctor concluded he has a serious internal problem from having a tiny piece of sharp Chicken Bone pierce through the Lining of his Stomach which is causing a sore or ulcer in his Stomach.He was given some Tablets(don't know what kind)and if the problem persists he will have an Operation(next year):eek: .How common is this and what can be done cos I am not content with the tests the treating Doctor performed.Oh I am not joking about this!:rolleyes:

Lotus B,

I am with you -- I would be very concerned--he needs to have the chicken bone that is making his stomach blleed removed ASAP.

Has he consulted a Gastro Doctor? -- It may be able to be removed using an endoscopic exams-- they take biopsies like that-- resulting No operation.
Just an Idea.

Harry,
From what I understand the Chicken Bone was digested it just perforated the lining of his Stomach.He is in Papua New Guinea so we are currently a part and the Medical care there isn't up to par snuff.They told him if the Tablets doesn't help he will require Surgery to repair the sore/ulcer in his Stomach.
