How can I relieve this pain?

I searched the library and couldn't find the answer to this question. I am 7 days post-op and cannot sleep more than two hours before I wake up with major lower abdominal pain. It feels like gas, but I am not releasing any. I have had bowel movements each day, but in between I have this pain. I'd really like to be more comfortable. Is there anything I can take to relieve this--e.g. Phazyme, Pepto Bismol, etc? I'd appreciate any suggestions.
