Want to check on post-opers from mid to late July. My surg was 7/30 and my tummy hurts! Very bloated and gassy. Any suggestions on how to ease this or can anybody give an idea of how long this pain lasts? I want my Dilaudid back!

I had mine July 16th and I'm still gassy

Painful gassy? There has to be a liquid gas x or something!? It's crippling sometimes.

Walk walk walk...the best solution

There is a chewable gas-x. I had surgery July 1st, didn't really have gas pains but had that referred shoulder pain for 4 straight days.

The first week I had painful gas and bloating now I have gas here and there but still more then normal.

Gonna have to get the chewable than! My back and shoulders hurt too. I have been walking...and it's def better than yesterday! Thanks guys!

I had surgery in July 26th it will get better!!!! You have to try and walk as much as possible!!! Once you start to expel from the back side lol it's the best feeling ever!! I promise it will pass

I had my surgery July 23. The gas was very uncomfortable but I promise it does get better.

Good to know guys. This gas has been rough. It has started to pass a little.

I haven't had any gas but burping is going on. I've been walking a lot maybe that's why. I don't know about everyone else but I thought this was going to be more painful. I have been pleasantly surprised that it hasn't been worse. I have been talking it slow and that seems to be my success. I'll find out if I get to go home today in a little. Is anyone else having a hard time getting their pee lighter?

My first week my pee was super dark I'm just under three weeks post op and it's getting a little better now just got to drink as much fluids as possible. I was too scared to drink to much since they told me to make 1 ounce of Water to last 15 mins but I can't do that I drink faster then that and so far i haven't had a problem from it.
