I had surgery on Thursday and I'm in so much pain I want to cry, not sure if its gas...I'm okay when I'm lying down but as soon as I sit up and drink anything or eat my jello or what have you I have this awful pain all through my stomach and the space in between my chest...anyone lease have this? I'm trying gas-x but nothing is happening...

Sounds like gas, and also the air they fill u with during surgery. It gets trapped and takes a while to dissolve. Keep taking gas-x. Use heating pads, and walk as much as possible.

Sounds like gas but you need to walk to get rid of it. Staying in bed will not help move it out.

Day 5 and still the same....doctor told me to take milk of magnesium but all that did was give me the runs...am kind of dehydrated if it keeps up I may need to go to the ER.. My pain is sharper then ever..I don't know what to do:(

You have to move as much as possible. By day 3 I was up doing fairly normal stuff and off pain meds. I did have horrible gas still in my shoulder. I think it lasted for a week or so.

Called the doctor they told me to come in or go to ER, the pain is a sharp stabbing pain starting in my chest and going towards my left side, it's worst than my c-section! I cried today:(

I also walked for almost 3 hours today but to no avail...
