What Causes Constipation After A Gastric Bypass Surgery?
Hello. In October, I had a Gastric Bi pass. Ruen x procedure. I am always having bowel problems now. always constipated. Tonight, i had severe stomach cramps with diarrhea. as i was on the toilet, i took a deep breath, and under my left rib cage, a very very loud gurgling sound ripped forth. it did that on both intake and withdrawal of the breath. very loud. afterwards, id end up with severe abdominal cramps then another bout of diarrhea. is this normal? is this something i should be concerned about and should i go see the Dr about this?
