I'm home!
Well im hope from the hospital and i feel OKAY. the gas pain at times is very uncomfortable so I'm walking and belching. It's not really coming out the bottom yet, but lots of belches and it helps.
In all honestly yesterday I was in so much pain that I had a lot of thoughts of regret but today i feel much better and I'm hoping tomorrow is exponentially better again.
thank you for all your support! hugs

I found a heating pad helped with the pain. Mine traveled all over the house with me in the early days.
Hope you find some relief soon.
