I had my procedure yesterday morning. I'm still very uncomfortable, especially with the gas working its way out of my system, and I have a lot of indigestion. Still learning how much Water I can swallow at once.

Anyone have any novel advice for feeling better faster?

Hey Ryan! I'm 5 days post op. The uncomfortable feeling doesn't change until at least two days after. On day 3 and 4 you start to feel so much better. Today I feel 80% back to normal. I do get this super painful tightening feeling whenever I am standing up from a sitting position. The sipping of the liquids is going to be your best bet to move the gas. Also, walking around a lot. No matter how uncomfortable it is. With the IV you should be wanting to pee a lot anyway lol. Have you gone to do your xray yet? My doctor ordered an X-ray the next day to make sure there was no obstruction or leaking. Right after that is when I was cleared for all liquids!! It will get better I promise. I am 14 pounds lighter since Friday!!

I agree with @@BriAStewart, on day 3 and 4 you start to feel a lil better and 7-10 days you'll really notice a difference!!

Good luck
