So I'm 5 days post op. Still sore when I move, can bend down and it's hard to sleep on my side. But that's not the problems. I'm having a hard time getting protein in. EVERY time I take a sip of water or shake I get gassy and bloated. Water makes me have gas. It's so uncomfortable. I take 2. 20 min walks min a day. And I walk up and down the driveway in between that and I still have gas. Any suggestions?

GasX strips really work for me.

I have the chewables which don't seem to be helping at all.

The strips that melt on your tongue are wonderful!

I had the same problem! I am a nurse and I went to cvs and bought simethicone chewable tablets. They worked miracles for me. I took 2 and woke up the next day feeling like a new person. You won't believe how much of the pain is just from gas. I am day 9 now and feeling 100% back to normal no discomfort.

Feel better!

Gas X strips are great but the best thing i found that got rid of my gas in 2 days was peppermint tea, my mother recommended it to me and it worked really well

Me too!

GasX strips really work for me.
