Good afternoon! I was sleeved on May 27th and have recovered pretty well. I had no gas pains in the hospital and very little when I got home. Most of my abdomen is feeling ok except for the large incision on the left where the stomach was removed. It feels like a cramp that you get when you're running except is not a cramp it's pain. I hopes that makes sense! I thought it was gas but I used the Gas X strips with no relief. I was also constipated and my nurse at the office told me to take some Milk of Magnesia which helped me go. The pain however was there before I used it. Does anyone have any suggestions?

On a more positive note, I have lost 17 pounds since starting my pre op diet on May 20th.

Good I'm glad he gave you clarity. I keep a 1 liter bottle next to me all day and nurse it and try to fill it again so I get at least 2 in.
