I think you will know, you will be most likely very sick and not be able to eat.. Check with your Dr, he tested you very well before you left the hospital. Good luck on that.

A leak, as in fresh surgical post-op? The pain would have driven you to the phone before you came here, I can assure you. And fever. If you have pain and fever (over 99), call NOW, get your shoes on and get into the car and GO. If you also have pain anywhere else in your body that might seem unrelated to you, plus abdominal/back pain and fever, I hope you're reading this on your cell already IN the car. Leaks are very unusual today, but deadly if not taken care off immediately. My dh had one, and survived to tell of it.

I agree with Michelle, if you even think that you have a leak get to a hospital ASAP. A leak can cause a life threatening infection!
