Topic: RE: Gas pain is horrible
Have you been walking? It really helps it move. If you are lying in bed, change positions often, that can help. Chewable Gas-X is a lifesaver--start that if you haven't yet.

Have you tried Gas X or even drinking something warm? I had my surgery on the 17th. And I know i have used both gas x and sugar free hot cocoa, since I'm not a coffee or tea person. Also walking helps.

Topic: Gas pain is horrible
I had RNY surgery on 9/18 and doing pretty well. My biggest problem is all the gas. I can't seem to get rid of it. It feels like its blocked inside of me and can't escape. It's miserabl!,,,,

To those of you who cleaned: I did it too!! I mean i REALLY cleaned. Completely reorganized and threw stuff out of the spare room and put a bed in there. Before it was my "junk" room. now it's just my "junk closet" haha
I scrubbed floors and bathrooms, shampooed carpets, cleaned the garage....it was like spring cleaning, but...not in the spring!
I hope everyone who has had their surgery this week has done well!! I am confident you're all recovering now and will be going through some of the same things those of us early-september surgery folks have gone through. Keep coming back to the boards. It's a great area for support and Q&A.
Love to all

You'll be glad you have cleaned so well before your surgery! I was discharged from the hospital last evening and I'm finding it to be quite depressing to be home in my unkept house! I'm doing some light cleaning as I go because I just can't stand it! Stupid me!
