so im getting things ready for bed tonight and all of a sudden i start getting really sharp pains in my lower abdomen. i kind of just collapsed onto my bed and everytime i move the pains intensify. Im thinking its just bad gas pains but its killing me. Should i be worried? i just dont want to over react but i dont want to just bru**** off either. I havent eaten anything out of the ordinary today but this is hurting me super bad!! Anyones comments would be appreciated! thanks

Hope this isn't too late...a bit personal but have you been going no. 2 regular? It could have something to do with that...If you are still in pain CALL YOUR SURGEON NOW!! It could be a bowel obstruction (i hope and pray not) and the quicker you get it looked at or diagnosed the better...please update when you are feeling better!!

Please call your surgeon ASAP. I started having really bad pains about 5 months out. They felt like gas pains, and even had an ER doc tell me they were.  It turned out to be my gallbladder, and I had to have emergency surgery to remove it. Please don't mess with your health!

Thanks for the input girls :)

i ended up making my way downstairs and taking some gas x in hopes it would ease up and thankfully after about 30 minutes it did. If it had still been hurting i would have been on the phone with my surgeon and on the way to the hospital but thank goodness it got better. I just had never, ever right after my surgery, had gas pains like that, it was NO fun at all.

Just wanted to update and let yall know im a*ok :) thanks again!

I am so glad everything is ok...I too get horrible gas pains from time to time...I try to limit my milk products (i take calcium twice a day though to make up for it) and broccoli which gives me horrible gas...Glad things are better!!

I had the same thing happen to me.  It onset so fast, and for no reason at all.  I ended up going to bed early to hope when I woke up it would be gone.  And it was.  Not sure what it was or why it happened.  Hasn't happened again though.
