Scared-someone tell me it's ok

Hi had surgery last Friday June 10. Last 2 days lower right abdomen pain feels like gas but does not go away. Diarhea (sp) for 2 days. Please tell me this is ok. I have had 2 prior bypass surgeries and have gone through hell... I can't go through another revision or complications. Waiting to hear from Doctor...

  • I don't think anyone on here can comment, other than that you did the right thing by calling your doctor. I hope you feel better soon, and that it's nothing too serious.

  • Liquids in/liquids out! Call your doctor if you are still having problems. Best wishes!

  • You are probably right about it being bowel related, since that is the area where you would feel it. Ovarian issues (or ovulating) can cause pain in the same area, so I'm glad you've got a call into

I understand. Was just looking to see if anyone had similar symptons. Lower right abdomen pain.. definitely feels like gas. And very soft stools for 2 days. I have only been eating protein shakes, yogurt, FFSF pudding, popsicles and lots of water.

You are probably right about it being bowel related, since that is the area where you would feel it. Ovarian issues (or ovulating) can cause pain in the same area, so I'm glad you've got a call into your doctor. You asked specifically "please tell me that this is okay", which none of us can; even if we've had the same pain.

I hope you're feeling better soon, and that it's something simple.

I had surgery June 11th. I also have right side pain...feels like gas. I had 1 normal BM then horrible Diarrhea last night. I ate Protein enriched pudding...maybe it was too much for my pouch to handle. I had Greek yogurt this am. So far so good...except really gassy. Burp! Walking really helps. I know it's hard went you don't feel well. But it helps.

I had diarrhea too. Banded last Monday. Could be the post op anti biotics? I take some probiotics and that has helped. Yogurt helps too.

It is probally musle related but good thing you called your Doctor ,since we are not the Doctors but I know for me after surgery I had a lot of pain on my right side and texted my Doctor to see if it was normal and he said yes it was cause it was a muscle probally pulling from surgery that we don't usually use cause it hurt and tugged when I tried to get up from laying or sitting , still Great that you called your Doctor.

I had horrible diarrhea for the first few days after my surgery. Combine that with the gas problem and it was a recipe for disaster!

It sounds like what you're experiencing is probably normal, but it wouldn't hurt to call and talk to your doctor about it, just in case.
