My friend had the sleeve done yesterday. She is annoyed because she is very gassy and cannot keep liquids down... Is there something she can do... My date is June 11.. and its scaring me to see her be so uncomfortable

Day 2 is awful!! But this too shall pass. It gets better every day.

Hello, I snuck gas x strips in and it was my life saver. They are minty and they work!

She's early out what she is feeling is very normal,

She needs to be up and walking at least 10 minutes an hour to help with the gas. As far as the nausea has she asked the doctor for anything?

LOTS of advice on here for gas. WALKING is the best. Gas x strips they say are very helpful.

WALK WALK and walk some more. It's the only thing that will rid your body of the gas. Plus.. It gets you moving and recovery is quicker if you don't sit around. That's something you can remember when you're out of surgery. Don't put off getting up and walking as soon as you wake up. It's the deal breaker

I puked up everything I tried to drink for the first 2 days--unfortunately, it's normal

Thank u all for ur advice... it makes it easier when u have someone to talk to... Ready or not here I come.

I, for one, and so glad I had the gas x strips! They, as well as walking frequently, were lifesavers :-D best wishes
