I had Gastric Bypass Feb 13th, 2007. I had to have a small bowel surgery 2 weeks later. After that, I have been nothing but awful. I had an infection in one of my incisions. Now, I have been having terrible pains and it feels like it is in my bowels and I cant even sit on my behind. I have to sit leaning to the right or the left. The scary part is yesterday, I had another abcess in me somewhere that busted , but it is running out of my vagina. For some reason now the pain I was having is gone. I can sit again. The doctor cant give me any info, but just let it run out. I am seeking a second opinion. Has anyone else been having these problems. Please help me.

((HUG))) i wouldnt ignore all this sounds like (and im no medical expert nor should i replace the consult of a DOCTOR) but sounds like you had a something that ruptured.......
I feel you need to be seen and right away possibly a trip to the ER. I wouldnt ignore anything. SOMETIMES you have to go over
your doctors head if there not addressing something to you
that is alarming!
I feel you deserve answers and tests need to be ordered.
(((HUG))) and hope your journey starts to turn more positive!
YOUR in my thoughts and prayers!!!!
KEEP us posted and i look forward to getting to
know you thru your posts!

Darlin im not a Dr. I am a nurse though. My suggestion would be go to the ER. Have that Dr. Look at you then they can call in your surgeon or.. whom ever is on call and have them look at you like you should be. I take it you called your Dr. and he told you to let it ride out? I would still go to the ER. Its very possible that its better now but I wouldnt let it go without being looked at right away. Its best to treat somthing early than to let it (ride). Let us know how it goes. MMM If it was a bowl problem, I dont see why it would run out of your vagina? Please seek treatment right away.

Please take their advice, sometimes docs don't always listen very carefully to their patients are get us confused.. please seek medical help.

Yes, get to the ER ASAP.
It sounds to me, the abcess (nest of infection) ruptured into your vagina, so you will need both a gastro-intestinal surgeon and a gynecologist to take a look at you,
Actually, I hope by now, you are beeing seen by someone.
