This gas pain is no joke, and my nurse said I can't take GasEx. But I made it! I'll add more when I can keep my eyes open.

Congrats on your surgery! I know those gas pains were a killer the first week or so for me, but make sure to walk as frequently as possible to get that gas out of your system!

Congrats!!! Why can't you take GasX?

Woo Hoo!!!

Congrats. Tums worked for me when I had gas pain. The pain was mostly in my back.. Hang in there.. It will eventually lessen .

Congrats, if you able try walking it really helps. I was just sleeved on the 20th, trust me everyday gets better.

I had gas pain for first 2 days. I was constantly walking every hr or so .now I am fine. its been a week.

Congrats!!! Why can't you take GasX?

Gas-X works on gas in your stomach. the pains are from what is put in to allow the doctor to work...the pain is that gas putting pressure on you diaphragm.

Yes that's what I have gathered. I did finally pass gas today. Just once but even a little relief was welcome. Also....heating pad is my best friend right now. Really helps to makes me comfortable. I'm having trouble forcing myself to take in enough liquids. Even taking just one sip makes me feel like I am stuffed.
