I had my surgery with hiatial hernia repar as well 4 days ago. Since day 3 i have been passing gas a lot. Each day i have increased my liquids. Im reaching about 48oz today so far. I feel weak at times wish i could eat just a lil spoonful of carbs on this liquid diet. Gas pain is gone but stomach feels like i have done 1000 crunches.

How was your recovery ?? My belly still hurts & im still very gassy. Unable to get anywhere close to 60oz of liquid

I'm 5 days out and what helps with gas is walking. I use a pillow on my belly and gently apply pressure when I get up and move around. This reduces pain and works the gas up or down either way is fine as long as it comes out. I have heard of some using a chewable for gas but talk to doc first and try walking around the house more.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
