How do you know if you have a leak ?

How do u know ???

Here's what I found as the symptoms from another site

Symptoms of stomach leak include: rapid heart rate, dizziness, shortness of breath, fever, worsening abdominal pain, left chest or shoulder pain, abdominal distention, the appearance of illness and a general feeling that something is very wrong. Unfortunately, many of the symptoms may be absent or could be from something else (e.g. bleeding). Diagnosing a leak is further complicated by the fact that there is no single, reliable test to definitely diagnose a leak.

Hope that helps, and hope you just asking out of curiosity and not because you might have one

I have the same question. I heard if I have one I will know, but how soon? I've heard your stomach has limited nerve functioning and u might not feel a rip. I have been eating soft foods. I am 13 days out. I didn't try them until after my 1 week visit and never a lot. Sometimes I feel a bit weird, like a gas pain or a bit of nausea. Soon after it goes away. My just scared now

My doc said you will have a fever over 101. If you get a fever go to hospital!!!!

I felt pretty good yesterday iam one week out all my pains are except the left side hurts when breath in and starting to get a little pain in my left shoulder. I took some gas x and some of the pain on the left side of me chest has subsided. Is it just gas?No fever no dizziness. I have been doing things to the T! I am freaking out a little as usual. Down 28 lbs in 7 days.
