text: during an exploratory lappy, the surgeon found brown spots on the omentum...? the spots were not raised and had definite borders, block or circle shaped in nature.  they did not bear a "spider-like" border.  they were in two or three patches with probably four to seven spots in each.  the surgeon said it wasn't normal but was stumped concerning what they were and sent off for analysis.  any ideas? is that the thing that the doctor on oprah's show last week? the blubbery thing in front of the stomach? i hope your okay, let us know.
