Im 5 months out from surgery. And right now im having the absolute worst stomach pains ever.. im not sure what going on.. any advice?

Take a gasx and if that doesn't help, call your doctor. Do you have a fever? Chills? Tis the season for stomach viruses, so hang in there and try not to worry too much yet.

I actually broke down and went to the ER cause I was in unbearable pain and I have a very severe uti :/

Eeeeek! Glad you went, glad that's "all" it is.

Oh yeah they can be killers as far as oain goes. I had one about a month ago & I was sure there was something really serious wrong. I couldn't even pee at all. The weird thing was when I first woke up I was able to pee fine then about an hour or so later the pain started & just kept getting worse then when I tried to go nothing would come except a lil dribble here or there & that made the pain even worse. Waites for my mom to get out of work so she could drive me to the hospital. I was thinking a kidney stone thay had got caught & was blocking me from going but nope after a few hours at the hospital & a bunch of test the doctor came back & said I had a severe uti. Which suprised me because I had no fever nor any signs before that day but was so happy to feel better by the next day. I really hope you start feeling better very soon. Try to increase your water intake..

This has happened to me as well, twice....once was right after being sleeved and they had to give me antibiotics, and one a year later. This might be TMI, but I know how I got mine so I will share.....it seems that every grown woman should know this, but I didn't know it until I was in my late 20's. I got them because I didn't wipe myself properly (from front to back). The first one was in the hospital and I had to drink the stuff that makes you clean yourself out, so it was a little messy and most likely some of the feces got into my UI tract. The second one was after I had had some diareahea so again, you have to be very careful. They are so so painful. Anyway, ladies, always wipe from front to back only and if you are having a loose bowel, you must be extra careful.
