1st symptons of a leak?



Recommended Posts

I'm so terrified of a getting a leak. A new pain started about 4 hours ago, left side, and if i move the wrong way, it's stronger and sharper. I'm not nauseated, and I'm on liquids only and have no issues with taking them in, and a little diarreaha (spell?) just recently. It doesn't feel like gas. Those that have had leaks what were your 1st symptons? This pain is enough so that I'm worried.

My doctor said that running a fever and a pulse rate above 100 beats per minute are the first signs of a leak. He said to get to the ER if both are present. Good luck!

In addition to the rapid heart rate and fever that JanaLee mentioned, my doc said the pain would be really bad and I would be throwing up..I think your good ;-) Every little pain and discomfort I got, I was convinced it was a leak....I stayed with my mom for a week after surgery and I drove her crazy haha..It's normal to be cautious, you had a big surgery..Try to relax make sure to eat and drink very slowly..Each day that passes you will feel better and better..Good luck
