try some gas x .. i have read on many blogs it helps ... i have got mine already for my surgery!

Is throwing up blood normal? I am not sleeved but this is the first I have read about that!! hope you are feeling better...

i used the gasx strips to ease my gas pains after surgery. it really helped. i also spit up some blood. the doctor stated that it comes mostly from the throat being irritated from the tubes that help you breath during the surgery. walk as much as possible it really helps with the gas discomfort also. welcome to the "losers" side.

Gas X Strips are the best ... walk as much as you can you will fell much better. try some suger free popcials.

I was constipated while still in the hospital. I stayed 2 nights and was sick, in pain, gassy, bloated, you name it the day after surgery. They gave me 2 enemas that night and that helped a little. I started taking MiraLAX while still in the hospital and after about 3 days, I felt great! My surgery was Tues, Jan 24th.

Yea fattymcfatterson like JMarshall said it's normal because of the breathing tube that they have down your throat during surgery. I was dry heaving and blood was coming up the whole night. I was scared out of my mind, but they said it's normal for that to happen. firstday, the same thing happen to me. I was constipated and they gave me 2 enemas and it only helped a bit. I'm still constipated...I may need another one. But, the gas pains are not as bad as they were, but I'm going to definitely try the Gas X stripes. Thanks for telling me about them! I need anything to make this gas go away.
