Another newbie to the Florida board

 Hi everybody! Wanted to introduce myself. I had RNY a few days ago, on December 14th. I got home last night, and feeling good, except for gas pressure. Should I try gas-x to help relieve the pressure? I walk around, but the gas just wants to sit and aggrevate me!

Hi. I'm sorta close. lol. Welcome.

It would be worth a shot. Good luck.

Gas-X is for gases in your stomach & intestines only. The gas your experiencing is in the cavity of your body on the outside of your new pouch. Keep moving. Bend a little to reshift the gases but Walking is the best way to release these gases and any pains.

I didn't have any gas issues, but lot of people say applying a heating pad to where it hurts helps.

Feel better soon

Thank you for the replies and the welcome! I didn't take gas-x, and I'm feeling much better. I guess it had to go through course.
