Does This Sound Like A Leak?



Recommended Posts

I Am so paranoid about a leak. Tomorrow I will be 4 weeks post op. Since yesterday I have felt bloated and had a crampy like feeling (middle of stomach and around to my back). This morning I took a drink of crystal lite and spent the next couple of minutes heaving over the toilet. I don't have a fever.

So, in your "professional" opinions, does this sound like a leak or a virus or what??

Four weeks is pretty late out to get a leak. Not impossible, but pretty late. I think it is more likely a bug than a leak.

BUT, when in doubt always check in with your surgeon. Get their opinion. They may want to check you out.

I hope you feel better soon!

I agree, check with your surgeon to be sure. The bloating and cramping sounds more like a bug, but wouldn't hurt to put your mind at ease. Keep hydrated and hope it is better soon!

IDK what a leak first presents as, mine didn't feel like anything, until I had an abscess. I bet the ladies are correct and you have a bug or something... pls check with your dr. or his nurse and hope you get well soon!

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
