When does the gas go away? I'm feeling good and not as sore as I have been but the gas.......it never seems to go away. I am sipping my water and trying to get it all in but I always feel so full and gassy.

Walking, walking and more walking.

what white dove said- but if your plan allows it it was helpful to eat plain greek yogurt (no sugar). it helps break up the gas

I do not think that anyone can say exactly when your gas will go away as we are all different. WALK WALK WALK WALK..... I was doing this for months after surgery and burping still but the good news is that it does really go away. You may not feel comfortable doing this since you are only a week out but I also found raising my arms to stretch help me relieve the gas.

Like the above said WALK and then more walking. I still have horrible burps and my surgery was March 4.

Walking helps but mine was so bad I could barely walk.  Time was the only thing that helped me and I tried EVERYTHING.  About 9 days out is when it got drastically better.
