I just had my surgery on the 10th and I feel so full under my ribs when I drink, is this normal or gas? I hope we March peeps and other veterans can support each other. This app is a Godsend!

Man idk what's going on with me then! I'm broken lol

Well had surgery on Wednesday. Came home on Friday, so far just experiencing gas and occasional pain. What suggestions does anyone have for gas?

only thing I can say is walk,walk walk..sit up and wait it out. You should be better soon.

I am 6 days post op today. Those gas pains are horrendous, aren't they! I have been walking as much as I can and I took a small footstool in to the bathroom. It seems having my knees up a little higher helps relieve the gas.

Every day is better and am still so excited!

guess I was lucky, mine was about over around day 3, hope it goes away soon for you.

Ugh I'm at day 25 and today was rough. I don't know if I just over did it this week or what. I didn't have a BM for a few days (sorry for TMI) I took something to help move things along and that worked, but I'm having pain on my lower left side and I've felt kind of sick to my stomach all day. I feel like I broke something inside.

I went easy on eating today, I've only had some apple sauce, a few ounces of smoothie, and a soft scrambled egg. Hoping I'll feel better tomorrow.

I had my bypass on March 26th, 2014 so I am only three days out. I feel pretty good but still get very tired and can make it awake for only a couple of hours at a time. I have noticed today that I have been a little bit hungry off and on. I just can't get the protein shakes down. Anyone else out there experiencing any of this?

Woo hooo! You are doing AMAZING! Keep up the great work!

Hey Kim what protein do you use to mix in with the soups? Is it flavored?

Me, Shannon? I don't use anything, or eat soup yet.
