Passing lots of gas... does this ever end?



Recommended Posts

I am 3 weeks out and I am farting now more than ever . I do not have gas pain from surgery or anything but just good old fashioned farts !

All this farting at night is so not sexy especially infront of my boyfriend.

Does this ever go away ?

NOPE it goes on for the rest of your life! :)

if your still on liquids and puree, that was the problem for me. as soon as I started on "REAL" food, like solid Proteins and veggies, it went back to normal.

Try Gas-x strips or any other medicine that has simethicone in it... Simethicone is an anti-flatulent.

Since may 25th, II cant burb, and all I do is fart. loud....long.... and uncontrollable. I farted once so loud when I thought no one was around in front of the food store.....I wasnt alone!!!:thumbup:

I wanted to crawl under a rock. I used the "I just had surgery" and "excuse me"! She just kept on walking....:)! I laugh about it but I was sooooo embarrased!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
