gaspains

I woke up one day and decided I was tired of being fat and wanted to make a positive step to do something about it.  I looked online for lap-band procedures and found a doctor who did the procedure and started taking steps to being a better me.  After having surgery, I have more gas pains then I have ever had in my entire life.  After six months I woke up one day to the most extreme cramps and stomach pain I had a neighbor rush me to the hospital where I found out a had a hernia and my intestines were twisted and trying to come out my abdomen wall.  The doctor told me this was a "volunteer" surgery.  You don't have to have it.  I told him, I can't walk, I can't eat, I can't drive, I am in to much pain that I can barely breathe and talk, how can this be a "voluntary surgeryThe next morning at 9am the Doctor told me I was good as new and ready to go home and cook, clean and take care of myself and my child.  (Someone is crazy)!  I thought I had been run over by a truck and back over by the same truck.  I had two surgeries within six months and I was supposed to jump up out of bed and go home and cook and clean?  My gas pains did stop for over a month, thank god!  I thought this surgery was going to "fix" whatever was "broken" inside inside me.  I was wrong.  Here I am again less than two months since the hernia surgery and I have these horrible gas pains again!  The only thing that makes me feel better is lying down and being very still.  This is my story, I hope yours is better!
