Gas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am 6 days post op and have terrible gas pains. My pmp suggested Mylanta-gas for this problem whick I started yesterday. Still have terrible pain. My doctor does not believe I am constapated as I have gone 4 times since surgery. Any help or suggestions would be appreciated. I also ate a bit of yogurt the past rwo days and wonder if that is a culprit. Thanks, Susan

I have not had my surgery yet, but when I had my hysterectomy I had a similar problem. I know you are not supposed to have sweets, but my mother gave me peppermints, and this helped, as well as, walking. Maybe you could have peppermint tea? I would definitely lay off the dairy until this passes-no pun intended-lol. I had to post since no one else was kind enough to answer. I hate it when I get no replies. Hope Everything else is going well. Good Luck, Dana

I had a sleeve gastrectomy 7 weeks ago and gas x really got me through it tastes ok it is chewable and it works fast
