2Nd Day Post-Op, (Gas Pain & Nothing Goes Down) Help Please Any Tips

walk or rocking chair for the gas pain and as far as the swallowing goes it could just be sweeling which should go down in a week or two. You could be taking too large of swallows.

Try dissolving gasx. That worked well for me. good luck.

Walking was the best medicine for me. It did wonders but there was a post on one of the strings that I think will help you. She recommended using heating pads for the back and stomach along with a shiatsu messager to help move out the gas.

Personally walking and standing versus laying did wonders for me.

If nothing is going down, I wonder why you were discharged from the hospital...? That's odd.

Thanx four the tip guys, (Tina) I had my GVS done @ RWJH and my nurse sucked, Maybe thats Y she didnt check, but my surgeon requested X-rays to see the fluid go down.The next day a visiting nurse came to see me and I have been improving since. Walking did help and tomorrow I see my Doc/ and begin phase two cannot wait wanna try something other then liquids...
