    How much walking is enough? I'm having trouble standing up straight as it is

    My surgeon said to walk every 2 hrs when you're awake. When it was late and raining I'd walk in place in my apartment. It is the only thing that gets rid of the gas pains. Mine were gone about 5 days post opp too.
