    Gas pain

    I had such horrible gas pain, I couldn't even sit down! I would aimlessly walk around my living room at all hours of the night literally in tears praying it would go away. I know everywhere I looked all I saw was people saying "walk, just walk! gotta walk!" and it annoyed me so bad because I was walking but I was still in so much pain, but sadly they were right. I tried gas-x strips and chewable Mylanta but they didn't work. I literally walked nonstop and then one day everything just "relieved" itself. Although I will say, once you can have greek yogurt, that helped my stomach gas a lot surprisingly!
  2. Hi Everyone, I am new to this board but I really needed to see if anyone else was having/has had this similar issue when it comes to going to the bathroom (pooping if we're being real). I told my doctor and he didn't seem worried, but its really bothersome. I was regular right after surgery with no problems until I hit the Puree stage, ever since then I have been going every two days (which seems ok to me) my only problem is when I do have to go to the bathroom I get an intense stomach ache while going, and sometimes for another 30 minutes afterwards or on one occasion the whole day I felt my stomach was not right. and maybe a little TMI but when I go on these days I go A LOT. like ALOT ALOT. (also worth noting, I am not straining to go to the bathroom, I don't feel constipated at all when I go) My sister is a nurse and she suggested I take the Miralax prescribed by my doctor until I am going everyday regularly. I started doing that and have been going -pain free- everyday for the past few days, however today when I went I had the same issue. I sometimes even get sweaty and feel like what some describe as "dumping syndrome" is happening to me, even if I haven't eaten anything bad or anything at all. Sorry if this is long winded, but I was just wondering if anyone else gets bad stomach aches before they "go" ?
