usernamehmmm 0 Posted September 22, 2022 I’ve developed a lot of gas and excessive burping the last 2 months. I had my sleeve 5yrs ago. I haven’t changed any of my habits. I get excruciating gas pains sometimes and become constipated. When I’m finally able to go it’s diarrhea. Then the pain goes away. I haven’t had a normal bm in 2 months. It’s just such a long time after surgery I wouldn’t think don’t know if it’s related or should I go to doctor and look for any underlying reasons. Thank you for your thoughts fellow sleever’s.

kcuster83 1,504 Posted September 22, 2022 I would start with your PCP. Like you said, it is a bit of time since surgery. 1 catwoman7 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arabesque 7,426 Posted September 23, 2022 I agree, see your doctor. It seems too long to be related to your surgery. You may have developed IBS. 1 usernamehmmm reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KimA-GA 540 Posted September 23, 2022 do you have a gallbladder still? sounds like it could be that … totally worth a trip to a doctor to be sure.. if it is there are meds to help (tho doctors want to cut it out too quickly and don’t often want to even try other methods ) … also i know people who manage gallbladder issues by cleaning out their gastrointestinal tract with colonoscopy prep and it sets their gallbladder right without surgery or drugs… Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
