Sleeved on April 23 and the gas pains are horrible anyway to relieve myself?

[allwet 868]

walk, walk, walk then go on a walk

sorry that not much help but the movement helps move the gas. it can take from a few days to a week or more to get it all out and then every time you eat or drink you swallow air and it starts over again.

I promise it gets better just hang in there.

Walking, drinking my Clear Liquids, and Gas Z strips (it won't help the shoulder pain, but did help my gut gas).

Shoulder pain is usally from,leftover gas from surgery pooling up under your diaphragm. You get the referred pain in your left shoulder. I could go into a 15 minute tutorial on Embreology, anybody want to hear it? Nope didn't think so, leftover from the way you developed before birth, that's why you feel diaphragm pain in your shoulders, usually left and fall bladder pain is in upper right back and shoulder. The Bible says in Psalms that we were strange and wonderously made and the Psalmist knew what he was talking about.
There are a lot of weird feelings and twinges you'll feel after surgery but in the kind run they don't count for,much, what does matter is fittness, better health, loss of weight,, and a happier outlook on life. And lessenng of the problems obesity brings, a win win situation. You are young enough your skin will smooth out and snap back into shape. At 72 I'll have so much skin I'll look like a Shar Pei, but better a live Shar Pei than lying dead in a casket. Besides people love and pay a lot of money for Shar Peis. I could win a blue ribbon in the Recycled People Show.😨💤
