Retaining Fluid

What do I need to do to fix this problem? I also have had trapped gas somewhere in the region of my heart. Gas has been there for 5 days now. How do I fix both of these please?

I havent been sleeved yet but ive been pn this forum for 6 months and it seems thatcevery stresses walking as much as possible to get rid of the gas.

Oops i hit send too soon. Anyway i hope that helped!

gas x strips work for me.

I retain tons of fluid too. Every morning I wake up and my hands look like balloons. I just keep drinking tons of water and in a few hours, all the water leaves my body especially if I go workout. The more you drink, the more it comes out.

If its gas from surgery gas x wont do anything. The gas is used to expand your abdomen and isn't put inside your stomach or intestines rendering it useless. Surgical gas is "not that kind of gas". The only thing that'll help is a ton of walking. I had to walk every 5 minutes it hurt bad. Good luck!
