Hey! So I had my surgery Tuesday and came home with hardly ANY gas pains, thank GOD, because I heard they are the worst!! I walked alot that day and yesterday the pain finally hit me. Soreness. And last night I started to get some gas pains. I take my gas x strips, but they seem to do.. absolutely nothing. This morning I woke up, well, I dont think I ever really slept, and I woke up this morning think I was going to throw up, watery mouth, went to the restroom splashed Water on my face and rubbed my phenergan on my wrists. I still am getting these bad gas pains and trying to make myself burp but they just wont come out!!!!

I have been drinking water, Vitamin water, apple juice and thats about it, yesterday I tried a little broth and blended some Soup up, but hardly ate either of those.

I'm trying so hard not to throw up b/c It's not good for the band!!!! support anyone?????!!!!

yeah the gas pain is the absolute worstt i know. gas x didnt help me at first, but i kept taking it hoping that eventually it would kick in.

if you have a heating pad, try that - i know it relieved some of the pain for me especially at night when i was laying down. if you dont have a heating pad, dampen a kitchen towel (or anything bigger than a washcloth really) and put it in the microwave to warm it up and use that.

walking around will help too, i just walked around my house every half hour and that got the gas moving around and started breaking it up.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
