Completely healthy until this. I was out in 4 days but have had keep packing the incision. Nearly healed it suddenly opened up for no known reason. My hands, feet and eyes swelled and every joint ached but the surgeon can’t find a cause-no infection or leaking intestine. Has anyone had late post surgery complications?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06070104036244225033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499339597954408313.post-78046371265094827772016-07-08T10:56:48.850-06:002016-07-08T10:56:48.850-06:00I myself have just gone through all of this. 31st ...I myself have just gone through all of this. 31st of may 2016 I was heading to hospital to have my baby daughter via elective c section and then 4 days later started getting the symptoms you described above. After loads of drugs, tests xrays and examinations turned out I had to have as you say life saving surgery, I had caecal volvulus with right hemicolectomy and had to have 15 inches of my bowl removed... Just 4 days after having my baby daughter. Can safely say that was the scariest thing I've ever had to go through. Glad your doing well and hope I'll be saying the same soon just taking me a little longer to recover from this let alone the c section also. The doctor also told me how rare this condition is and that when it is came across its only found in elder people 40s onwards... I'm only 26. This last month or so has been the worst what was supposed to be the best time enjoying our newborn turned into a nightmare. I am in the UK and all the stories I've came across when I've looked at on the Internet have all been in different countries.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01857039791663611071noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3499339597954408313.post-92221416435279169572016-07-08T10:56:39.082-06:002016-07-08T10:56:39.082-06:00I myself have just gone through all of this. 31st ...I myself have just gone through all of this. 31st of may 2016 I was heading to hospital to have my baby daughter via elective c section and then 4 days later started getting the symptoms you described above.

Recovery is painful. Since I have time now, I've been looking up the condition and came across this. Just like my story except I went to the ER myself. But this life event sucks.
