Stomach Polyps

Monday November 24th my husband had a EUS this procedure was performed after a endscopy in June of this year showed a capret of polyps in his stomach.  The doctor that performed the EUS informed us that my husband did not have 100"s of polyps he had thousands of them.  The doctor stated that if this was him of his family member that he would have the stomach removed.

My husband had colon cancer in 2000 and has had 6 surgeries due to complication from perforated colon he developed ecoli, an absese on the abdominal wall and hernia's etc.   Because of the numerous surgeries all he has left his the small instestine.  How will have a total gastroectomy effect his eating and quality of life.
