Gas Pain Returned A Week Later?

[CrissyRing77 232]

Hey guys I am 10 days post op and have felt amazing!!! My gas disappeared quickly probably about a week ago! I've had zero gas since, well today I woke with a sharp pain in my left chest, it feels like gas. My tummy is also not feeling well. I drink and it feels as tho it's hitting gas but if I burp no gas comes just the liquid. I'm only slightly worried, but I just don't understand where the gas came from I'm eating the same stuff(or drinking rather) I'm afraid it's a leak and I know that's ridiculous! i feel like the pain does seem to move. I've tried resting this am when I wasn't sure what it was, then took a trip to the mall for two hours to walk it off...I'm not feeling better and my fluids just aren't sitting well which hasn't happened also since a week ago :/

I should probably say I'm also worried because despite having my surgeon say it's ok my belly button incision was leaking blood for 5 days and wouldn't you know it stopped tho now a millimeter above it my old belly ring scar looks enflamed! I'm fearful all was infected at one point and now it's infected my incision and the muscle it was attached to and now I'll die of sepsis which is the cause of my gas (ok I'm only half seriously but for how amazing I've felt all week in feeling pretty crappy today and out of the blue!)

If there is ANY risk of infection you need to call your doctor or go to the ER IMMEDIATELY. I lost a friend who had a post-op infection and didn't want to bother her doctor on the weekend.

Otherwise, are you perhaps constipated, more than you realize? Try Milk of Magnesia to clear out your system. It is unlikely to be gas at this point.
