hi everyone, am home from the hospital.  i had open RNY am in really bad pain,  I keep having really bad gas pains and sometimes like right now i want to burp to feel better, but I can't does anyone know of anything I can take for this am in total discomfort fight now.

Hi and congrats on your journey. I had the same problem. What I did is sipped water & walked around. Sitting pushes whatever you got stuck there. Whether you just walk around your house, take a walk outside, but don't sit. ~Amy

Congrats on your surgery! Try take Gas-X strips.  That is what my doctor recommended after my surgery and they really helped.  Also walking around, although painful, really helps a lot.

thanks guys, can you at least tell me how many days i have to go through this it started yesterday. melissa

congrats to you :)  take gas x and walk -- like everyone else says :)  i still burp -- especially when i eat too much -- and there's not a dam thing i do about the burping except to realize that i was stupid :)  take care walk and drink -- drink and walk -- and walk and drink some more Roberta

Glad to see you are home. I would also suggest spending some time in the bathroom.  I often found the walking and hydration moved things thru....so spend some time in there...... Bernadette
