I think I'm over thinking this but while drinking Water I had a burp come up and hurt and was a lot! I won't open my stomach staples will I?

No, if you haven't had blood gushing or constant pain on your side and not able to keep food down then your probably ok... Lol!! No, but seriously burping is ok. But get control of your swallowing cause gulping usually causes the air and painful burping is the result. Hopefully you don't have to experience that again.

Actually I had a leak and didn't feel a thing when it happened. No blood, etc. If you develop one you won't know until you have actual symptoms, but burping is not likely to cause them Do avoid vomiting (which gulping can cause) as it convulses the stomach which can cause leaks.

Thanks I think I just had emotional breakdown and then crying didn't help cause that hurt too:(

Sweetheart...you just had MAJOR surgery. You are losing weight rapidly (which causes huge releases of estrogen) and you are probably physically tired my dear. Give your poor self a break And quit hurting you silly

Really, go make a cup of hot chocolate and take five mins for yourself. You deserve it!!! But don't gulp LOL

I had my surgery 12/3 and though all is well and I didn't take the pain meds after the hospital I'm a hot mess mentally. I have anxiety all the time with depression and can't stop crying. I freak myself out like why did I do it and will I make it through. I have a ton of support but I just feel like a mess. I'm crying again as I write this

I had the same feeling 3 days out, crying and depressed and doubting my decision to do this to myself but Day 4 was MUCH better! Hang in there... Every day gets better
