Torsion And Ache Lower Left Ab Pain - - Had Bypass 12yrs Ago Posted: 08-04-04 20:49pm
Urgent !
If I bend over to do something, (as just
happened about 1/2 hour ago) I will often
get a torsion, twisting gut feeling and I
must stand up and massage left of abdomin.
Now after the spasm/intestinal torsion,
I have a relatively strong pain in my
lower left abdomen. Is it gas?
I had gastric bypass surgery in 1988
(somewhat successfull - but am 5'7" 210
lbs.) have had much difficulty with raw
veggies, meat etc. - will cause stomach
pain and sometimes is only relieved by
vomiting - very upsetting.
I am very fearful about the intestinal
spasms and twisting. And pain. What
could be causing this? How long should I
rest before being concerned with these
symptoms?
