Hello all I'm sure this has been covered but any thing anyone can mentioned that helped them is appreciated?

I just got banded and had bad gas pains. The best thing to do is walk. The first night and day after surgery as soon as gas pains started I walked. The nurses all stressed getting up and walking to help with the gas. By the 2nd day the gas pains were not as frequent.

Thank you seems walking is the best thing anyone know what the gas is from? You'd think they would tell you about this lol .

the gas is from them pumping air into your stomach and it takes awhile for it to all come out. walking definately helps the pain whenever i walk i normally feel better in a couple minutes or gettting the gas- x strips works great too
