iggychic 1,405 Posted October 13, 2012 You might want to call your doc and get in to see him/her Hun. At three weeks out you should be almost back to normal and it sounds like you are still having a lot of issues. Three weeks out or so I was lying on an operating table having a leak repaired. I had the surgery and never got better. You don't have leak symptoms but id still get a checkup with your surgeon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
COnative 192 Posted October 13, 2012 I wonder if what you are experiencing is a spasm. It feels constricting and like something is tying your stomach in to a knot. I had that the first two weeks after surgery. It does go away but it is painful enough that I would vomit. Anything I would drink or eat would put me in to a spasm. Sometimes acid blockers would help. But if you feel like it is something serious you should definitely contact your doctor. I am sorry you are going through this- it's miserable. I hope you get over it soon!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's all new 453 Posted October 13, 2012 Call your doc. If I recall you posted about dehydration, didn't go in when the consensus was go in for fluids and ended up passing out and hitting your head. This is not something to mess around with. Listen to your body. There are lots of possibilities - just call or go in this time. I'm not trying to sound harsh, but you can really put yourself at risk if you don't seek the advice of a doctor - we are poor substitutes ultimately for a real medical opinion. 1 COnative reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
