Well i woke up at midnight in pain and my husband helped me get up to go to the bathroom and when i sat down he saw my pants and my towel i hold over my stomach for.pressure was covered with a pink liquid ....we both kinda freaked out and were gonna go straight to the ER but while we were waiting for my aunt to get here to watch our 2 yr old i called my drs answering service and spoke with the on call PA and she says she thinks its an infection and that's what the hard spot is but not to go to the ER just to come in tomorrow and they may have ti reopen my incision and do a culture and put me on antibiotics... im so scared something serious is wrong i've had so many issues in the past with surgeries and i can't help but worry

Hi ladies! I am 4 days post op. surgery was April 25th. I stayed two days. I feel so much pressure from gas pains ans having a terrible time trying to pass it. I took the gas x strips ' date=' I guess they are working , but still feel extreme pressure. I hope to share my journey with pre & post opers. Where is everyone from?[/quote']

I used the chewable tablets--people say they work better than the strips. I'm from Austin, TX

I was having a horrible time with the gas. I was doing the gas x strips too.... Here's my advise: THROW THEM OUT!!! Get the chewable ones and take 2 at a time 3-4 times a day. I cannot tell you how much it has made a difference!! Oh and walk, walk, walk.

Today is one week and I am down 10 lbs... Not including the 7 gained from surgery. I am feeling great. No problems than I hate sleeping. I wake up with the worst back pain. I have a ton of energy and am able to pretty much be back to normal life activity outside major exercising. I can definitely get up and go no problem. I am even back to work today.
