Original: So, on Thursday, I was going for my daily hourly walk when I was drinking Water and my stomach began to badly cramp. It literally felt like my stomach was being squished and I had to stop at a gas station to use the rest room. What I thought would be just a regular bowl movement was dark red blood, no stool, just blood. This alerted me so I got a ride home and took a long rest. The next day, I began having chest pains on and off and didn't have a bowl movement all day. Today, I have had a few chest pains and a headache, dizziness upon standing, weakness and bouts of diarrhea in which the last one was a bit bloody. I have no idea what's going on. Has anyone experienced this? Now: So, at 12pm, my surgeon called me and told me to do a liquid diet and, if things don't get better, see him Monday. Since 12pm, I haven't been able to use the bathroom, just been able to pee but that's it. I have been drinking warm and cold fluids. I have not had any hunger, no chest pains or headaches or stomach pain until 4 this morning. Stomach started cramping, had lots of chest pain and finally, at 7, I was able to have a bowl movement. My stomach is still cramping and swollen but I do feel a bit better. Sent from my SM-G360T1 using the BariatricPal App

No, I haven't left my house in nearly a week. My mom works but she hasn't been sick with any type of flu. Sent from my SM-G360T1 using the BariatricPal App

An update: As of 6pm, I still am not able to have a bowl movement but I am passing gas. My stomach no longer hurts, I don't feel weak and there is no chest pain. I am on 48 hours fluids (my doctor said see him Monday if it doesn't improve) and I no longer have a headache. Sent from my SM-G360T1 using the BariatricPal App

My surgeon called me when I was half way to the ER. He said I didn't need to go and he wants me on a liquid diet. If it doesn't get better by Monday, I'll have to go and see him.

Thank you so much! I'm going now!

My name's Cheyenne, I am 22 and I had gastric bypass surgery on September 2nd of last year and it was the best thing to ever happen to me. As a child, I struggled with anxiety, depression and stress as well as surfing from all from all three eating disorders and schizophrenia. By the age of 20, I was 338+ pounds, diabetic, suffered from acid reflux, fibromyalgia, had breathing problems and had a really bad and heavy irregular period. I knew I had to make a change, I knew that if I didn't do something, I'd die and never get to make my life dreams a reality so, after doing some serious research, I signed up for gastric bypass with Dr.Daniel Cronk of Methodist Hospital in Omaha, Nebraska. It took a year to get it done with all the medicaid and rejection but, finally, on September 2nd, 2015 at 1:30, I went in as 311 pounds for surgery and so far I have lost 58 pounds and I am set for 125 pounds. I'd never thought I'd see myself here, I never thought I'd be alive at this point in my life. Its truly amazing.
