Hello all! I had my gastric sleeve surgery on May 1st and the first 2 days i didn't had any gas whatsoever even the surgeon was surprise but then as soon as i left the hospital and got home i started getting this horrible gas pain in my stomach and chest. It has been 2 days now and i still have them. Does anyone know how long they last to leave the body or what can i do to help it goes away faster? If it wasn't because of the gas i would be perfectly fine.. Help...

I've heard you have to "walk" off the gas. Luckily I didn't have that issue.

I actually still have the gas in my stomach and throat five months out. I was advised by another

sleever on this website to get prilosec. I was using Zantac and it didn't work but when I bought

the prilosec I finally got some relief. I use the generic as well and it works great. When I go to

my PCP I am going to get a prescription so the ins can pay for it. It is expensive but well worth

the money. Hope you feel better.

Just walk, walk, walk. It will work it's way out. Some faster than others. Just gotta grin and bear it!
