Ok. Im not sure if a leak can happen this late after surgery, but you have consider what kind of method was used to seal your stomach. Was it staples or was it stiches? Because the risk of late post op leak is possible if staples were used to seal the stamch instead of stiches. I have read journals where a leak was reported more than a year after surgery. Please know that i am not trying to scare you. Im just saying that it is better to be safe than sorry. When i had my oubt, i had it clarified immediately by going for a CT scan. Your said symptoms all point out to a leak, Shoulder pain, heartburn, Pain etc. Please consult your doctor immediately. I was sleeved on Jan 2, 2014 and im really looking for feedback on my problems with people who has done this surgery before. I hope everything works out well for you. Good luck

Your symptoms sounds like you may have a leak. Please go see your doctor immediately. I had a doubt if i had a leak and the doctor asked me to go for a ct scan. You will be asked to drink 2 liters of this medicine mixed with Water and then they will go for a ct scan. Its not painful at all.

Lines on my feet post op gastric sleeve
kuganrocks posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Hello Everyone. My name is Kugan and i had my gastric sleeve surgery on Jan 2 2014. I had some problems with dehydration post op and found that i have a small kideny stone (3mm) after my one month check up. I had mild problems with leg cramps and still have it every now and then. What i noticed is that when i was wearing my sock, new lines have formed on my feet, on both legs. I dint have this before and am just wondering if this is a side effect of the surgery and also so scared if im going to get foot cracks. Did anyone else have this problem? What am i supposed to do to get rid of it?
