Well you know how they tell you there is a small chance...... I was that small chance.

I am fine now and got it repaired (in April)

I had one 5 days after my RNY surgery. But when he finally surgically went in (it wouldn't fix through meds) he found it was my intestine twisted up into the previous incision from my gallbladder. It happens. Its good to not be dealing with it anymore. Y situation was a week of hell on earth, projectile vomiting randomly large amounts of bile. So not pleasant to deal with right after surgery.

My bowels went to sleep right after my surgery, when they tried introducing me to liquids it all came back up. It was not good. Finally they shoved a tube down my nose and into my stomach, it drained out all the fluid coming back up. Thankfully, my system woke back up a day and a half later. Actually it went on overtime...lol. Since then I have had one little scare with being blocked up, but so far so good.
