Waking around is number 1. Then something like gas-x.

I've been walking around and I have the heating pad on. Plus, I taken 2 teaspoons of mustard. That has helped me some since I posted. Since you guys surgery, do either of you occasionally experience trap gas or is it just me? I stay so bloated now since my surgery. It will be 2 years in February.

I take something called Devrom. It is made to help the lovely smell of gas, but it also helps the bloated feeling for me. Since my surgery my gassy smell has been horrible. Devrom makes it much better and gets rid of the gassy feeling all together.

@Music1619 Thanks for the info. Where do you purchase it or do you order it on line?

Yeah just google Devrom and you will go to their website.

My husband says they are a God send. That man really loves me to tolerate the new odors that the surgery has produced.

@Music1619 I understand...lol The smell is just awful. I'm really lying in bed wondering if I had a dumping. My stomach is still hurting....The last time I went through this I ended up at the doctor because everything I ate started my stomach to hurting. But this feeling didn't start until earlier today. I decided I was going to attempt the Liver Strink Diet again that my doctor requested 2 weeks before surgery. Only because I wanted to set a goal to come out of the 200's. I'm at 205 now....But I may have to cut this goal short if this is going to keep happening. I'm just literally scared to eat anything now.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
