    Walk a lot - gas pain is brutal. Peppermint decaf tea and massaging stomach and back helps too. For me cold water hurt my chest so the tea helps there too Feel better!

    Sorry to hear you are suffering with this. I am not an expert but I assume its gas, are you walking lots? Walking helps get rid of the gas. If its not the gas but from the actual surgery itself

If its not the gas but from the actual surgery itself, were you not given pain killers?

Thank you so much for reply. I got home late and haven’t gotten my prescription from the pharmacy. My husband just went to pick them up. Soon I get it I will get dressed and go walk.
[emoji1022]??????" userid="342591"]Goodmorning I had my sleeve done June 29th. I am home now but the pain is so unbearable sometimes i feel I want to cry and scream. Anyone else have pain like that ? Or is something wrong?
It sounds like gas. If you walk it should get better. [emoji4]

I definitely didn't have pain like yours, but I found ice packs across my incisions and abdomen to help A LOT in the first week

I had pretty bad pain, I cried and yelped when I got in and out of bed or when I got up off the couch, which I couldn't sit on because i was uncomfortable for so long. In reality it was just a few days, but I walked a lot and it wasn't just gas. It got better, I stopped taking the meds and kept shuffling around. The first few days were rough for me though.
