I know there are (or can be) immediate post-op problems with gas/bloating, but in the long run, does VSG help with bloating/IBS issues? I've had a sensitive stomach for years and even now, being on a raw veggie, protein drink & water diet for the last two weeks, I'm super bloated, gassy, and have pretty bad GI issues. Ugh... Wondering if this surgery is going to finally help resolve some of these things.
