what are the symptoms of a staple line disruption

I am worried I may have a SLD. 10 months after surgery I had lost 140 pounds and started gaining. I have gained 40 lbs back in the last 14 months, and I am now 100lbs over my goal weight. I can eat much more than I thought I should be able to... ie, 2 sandwhiches, or a resaurant sized burger and potato salad... (I know I SHOULD not be eating these... this is an example of what I CAN eat.) Are there typically any other symptoms besides ability to eat increased amounts of food and weight gain? Is is possible to stretch that tiny pouch to accomodate this amount of food?
