I just had my surgery on 7/15 , so this past Friday was my 2 week , i was told at that point i could start on soft mushee foods , on the list was finely chopped chili. I def over did it with that and i paid the price on saturday. My stomach was not hurting but def really gassy felt very bloated. No signs of any internal bleeding or anything from that i've seen so far. I'm feeling better but i think my stomach is irritated now. Even liquids make me feel full after a sip. So i think with what i did i may have caused some inflamation or swelling. It's better now than it was but still not perfect yet. What are the real signs of a leak so i know what to look for .

Just a few posts below this one is this post on the symptoms of a leak: http://www.verticalsleevetalk.com/topic/22197-what-are-the-symptoms-of-a-leak/

i have none of those symptoms so it's prob not a leak , it's prob just what i figured it was , i probably just have some inflammation from over working it too soon.

OBEY THE STOMACH! YOU BOUGHT IT! IT's letting you know "STOP!"
