Does This Sound Like A Leak?

I Am so paranoid about a leak. Tomorrow I will be 4 weeks post op. Since yesterday I have felt bloated and had a crampy like feeling (middle of stomach and around to my back). This morning I took a drink of crystal lite and spent the next couple of minutes heaving over the toilet. I don't have a fever.

So, in your "professional" opinions, does this sound like a leak or a virus or what??

Four weeks is pretty late out to get a leak. Not impossible, but pretty late. I think it is more likely a bug than a leak.

BUT, when in doubt always check in with your surgeon. Get their opinion. They may want to check you out.

I hope you feel better soon!

I agree, check with your surgeon to be sure. The bloating and cramping sounds more like a bug, but wouldn't hurt to put your mind at ease. Keep hydrated and hope it is better soon!

IDK what a leak first presents as, mine didn't feel like anything, until I had an abscess. I bet the ladies are correct and you have a bug or something... pls check with your dr. or his nurse and hope you get well soon!
