Abdominal pain

Hi folks! I had RNY surgery in Feb. 04 and a hernia repair and TT in Feb. 05. I don't know if this is related to any of the surgeries, but for the last 2 days I have been having abdominal pain; upper and lower, with bloating and lots of belching. When I eat or drink it hurts more, and it hurts to walk. I also am not having bowel movements as I was before. I am hoping this is only gastritis or something similar, as I start a new job on Monday. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Thanks for any responses.

Pre-op here -- but I would call your doctor -- particularly if you are not having bowl movements. From everything I have read -- abdominable pain can get very serious very quickly and is nothing to mess with. Call your surgeon or go to the ER.

Dear Darlene- I agree with the first reply. You need to go to your PCP as soon as possible. YES as Post RNY and Post PS there are alot of things we "go through" as far as "normal post RNY" BUT severe abdominal pain and lack of bowel movements doesnt sound very good...may be an obstructed bowel? Not trying to scare you...but get it checked out. You can never be too careful......Good luck hon.... hope you feel better soon....sending thoughts and prayers your way!................JOY

Thanks for the replys. I have finally had a BM and have some lower pain relief, so I am thinking it is an infection of some sort. I am eating blandly and will call my doc on Monday if not better. By all means if things get worse I would go to the ER. Thanks again.
