Hi, I was just released from the hospital today. I got sleeved Wed. afternoon. When does the gas pain go away? My pain settled in my shoulders and it is so painful. Also, why do I feel so hungry? Will the hunger subside?

As far as the gas pain walk as much as possible. I'd get a terrible pain In my shoulder and if I got up and walked around my house it would go away almost immediately

I was scared of that pain and went in that hospital knowing when I woke up I was going to make myself get up and walk...and I did. The Nurses just smiled and allowed me to with caution but guess what? Not one issue with gas pain at all so WALK!WALK!WALK! even if you dont think you can, you will feel better and sleep better I promise. Good luck ladies.

I had a hard time initially (and even now!) determining what was stomach pain, what was hunger, and what was gas. I eventually settled on walking, walking, walking, and chewing ice, and sipping, sipping, sipping. In a few days things settled down considerably.

Still learning how to best serve my new tummy! :)

I hear walking and gas x strips work well. I had no gas pain, thankfully.

Walking was the main thing that helped with the gas pain! It will eventually go away, but, I USED THE Gas-X strips also. But, the walking is the best help there is!!! It does get better:)

      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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      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!
