Well I am home and i Have a few ?'s

I am home after my June 19th surgurey and i am in no real pain just uncomfortable can anyone tell me how to get rid of this gas? I know i would just feel better if i could just get rid of some of this gas. Any suggestions. I am tolerating a very minimal amount of soup, jello and crystal light. Oh well we shall see what tommrow holds.. Jilly

Hi Jill, Congratulations on your your surgery! Gas is the major complaint after surgery, walk walk walk it really helps,if your still really bothered by it,call your surgeon in the morning and ask if you can take Gas X or if he can recomend something for you. As far as taking the advise of meds from anyone check with your Dr.ALWAYS don't just take,you had many meds through IV in the hospital that are still in your system and the last thing you want to do is have them not being able to be mixed,this could spell disaster,and plus now that you have had this surgery there are many meds you will not be able to take anymore. I hope you feel better soon,come back and let me know ho you make out! God Bless! Nancy

Just like Nancy said!! Walk, walk, walk and then call the surgeon! Congrats on your surgery though, and I hope this works itself out quickly for you, so you can start cruising on your exercise and weight loss!! TinK

Hi Jilly, Yes that gas can really be a pain, LOL! Walking like the previous posters said, usually helps. If not, check with the dr. Each day can be different, that's why they say hold on for the ride of your life!! Best of luck! Lisa
