Gas x

Hello everyone .. Just wondering if its ok to use the gas x pill immediately after VSG while in the hospital

I saw a YouTube video that stated the pill may not be allowable and that only the strips could be used ... Can't find the strips yet though so will try target

I purchased the pills from costco but I can return them since box is unopened

I'd go with the strips. I still avoid pills when I can at nearly 2 years out. Probably don't need to, just got used to it.

The hospital will most likely have something for gas.

I did the strips worked well.

You can buy a 6 pack of the strips on Amazon.

Thanks everyone! Don't have enough time for the amazon order but I will continue my search for the strips ASAP

Walgreens and CVS have the GasX strips.

Thanks everyone! I found the mint flavored strips at CVS today!! Ready as I'll ever be for my VSG tomorrow ... Scared and nervous of course but also very much excited about my healthier future (:

I actually think the Cinnamon GasX strips better. Can't find them anywhere but online now and I hate to pay shipping. Anyone seen the Cinnamon flavor anywhere?
