Gas and GERD -- Will it End?
Syler replied to Syler's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Thanks for the advise. I'll pick up another otc acid reducer for the two pronged approach. I've been back to work for a while so I'm moving about quite a bit. I'm glad to hear it goes away. A doc told me some people can wind up with cronic GERD. That would be awfull. I think a lot of the gas might be due to the swolen and narrow sleeve not being able to vent air as stuff is swollowed. I just hope it goes away soon. -
I'm 8 days post op and suffering a lot of gas bloating and GERD. I am taking Omeprizol now 2X per day and eating gas-ex like candy. I am also being woken up by this. Someone please tell me this will end soon.

I am 1 week post surgery and now that most of the surgical pain is gone, I am left with horrible hunger pain. The liquids I am allowed do little to help. Also, I seem to have no restriction when it comes to liquids. I'm sure that will change when I go to solid food. Anyway, when will these hunger pains subside? Right now I dread another week of this.

Hunger Pain - when does it stop?

I have also started taking some Gas-ex and Malox. Seemed to help for a bit but the pain returns quickly. Another week of this is going to be difficult. -

Thanks guys, I am taking Omeprazol 20mg per day and some gas pills. Maybe I should call the doc?
