2 weeks out and Feeling GREAT!

Two weeks out from surgery tomorrow and already walking about a mile! Feeling great now, just some minor discomfort in my midsection area, usually from gas Other then that, doing good. Wanted to find out if anyone has suggestions for releiving gas pain other than walking. Doesn't matter how much walking I do, still have gas pains. My diet is mainly liquid with some soupy pureed foods. Tomorrow supposed to start on Pureed thicker foods, so was curious if anyone found a good product to use to reduce gas pains? I know Gas-X doesn't work because you need some stomache acids for it to mix with to work and the little pouch doesn't produce enough to trigger it. Any suggestions? D D

My surgery is not until the 27th, but on my surgeon's pre-op shopping list Simethicone Chewable Tablets is listed for gas. Hope this helps. I look forward to reading more about your journey on your profile. Judy

Hi D D, Congrats on feeling great. I just had mine done on Monday the 11th, I have not had bad gas pains. I just keep walking around my house. Try not to sit still. I can't remember what my surgeon said to take for gas, but I will ask him tomorrow when I'm there so I can be prepared! Good Luck, Lisa
