free flap
Hi Jeanie, I had a free flap done in August. That is the complete removal of the tummy skin and fat, and attached to the breast. There are quite a few here who have had something similar done, and we would be glad to answer questions. What exactly did you need to know?

I haven't had any kind of tummy problems. I know my tummy is now very very tight and sometimes I feel my intestines bubbling right at the surface of the skin. Have you had any x-rays or ultra sounds of your gut?? What kinds of tests have they done? Your right tha something is going on becsue you should not be having that kind of pain in your belly like that..0 -

Have you talked to and seen your plastic surgeon recently and told them about this? Have you had a MRI done? Make sure that your surgeon understands the pain, and, you might want to make an appt. with your oncologist and tell them. There has to be a reason.0 -

Jeanie,
Sorry I missed your reply today. I understand that they run different tests and could not find anything.
Yes, Dian is correct your plastic surgeon is the first to talk to. You also should seek a second opinion - from another plastic surgeon. Primary care physician - blood metabolic panel, consultation with Gastroenterologist and gynecologist will be helpful as well.
I had my Tram flap 14 months ago. Generally speaking I am doing ok. However every time when I had stomach pain, periods (before induced menopause) or any other pain in my internal organs I have experienced similar pain as you do. I am always trying take care of primary pain sites. Usually it helps.
I would suggest checking your other organs for non-cancer related illnesses, just to be sure that your liver, kidney, bladder stomach are working well and causing your pain.
I hope it helps, please write me.
Hugs.
