What type of things are you doing? BTW.......I get first fill in 3 weeks. Yippee maybe I'll start losing weight. I'm taking the bad weight gaing pill every other day. Maybe that will help. After my fill or right before it I'll be on reg meds. Hope they all go down ok. Stay safe....be strong.

Damn straight!

My gas was the day of surgery . Itt was right in or around my throat. On the 4th day of Clear liquids had to have something different...4 oz skim milk....it broke up the gas but spread it out all over my left side. I'm on full liquids now but the gas isn't goung away. It's been a week now and I have to take shallower breaths due to chest hurting. I take gasx activated charcoal and yes even skim milk but nothings work. How did anyone get rid of surgery gas?

Thx brittani87-my gas pains are getting a luttle better but not much . I chew in gasx am and pm but I talked to a dr that suggested activated charcial so takinf both. I forgot all abour popcicles. . I started full liquid 30 so have about 10 days yet. Everything I drink is staying down alright getting my fill just more of a variety. Thx for your help.....be safe.....stay strong....God Bless.

Thanks for the input. I did read that beet juice was a good way. I have gas so bad hurts likeH. I'm getting more sleep at night tho. Iwas just fuming.... fatty liver..diabete...high tri...high chl...bipolar disorderr....hi bp...hypothroid...enlarged heart...mental problems.....my body is a trash can. Where do I start to fix it? If I can......I'm like the dead man walking. I just got up and having a pity party...so the rest of the day can only get better.

I had insomina from post op day to til the following tuesday. I couldn't sleep more than 2 hrs at a time because of surgery and gas.Now since my breakthrough the next night I have slept fairly well. Not too say I couldn't use a few more hours a day. You really do get better faster with exercise?. Now I feel like walking, enough strength. I am having a Protein drink every morn to keep my strength up. I over drank yesterday on skim milk. It doesn't feel good. Will do better today.

That sounds great you're right on the path. Me? Well I'm on my last day of Clear Liquids. With the gas no sleep and no food I am very weak. Last night however got in a full 10 hrs sleep. Now a coule more nights of that and I should be right as rain. However this gas pain at my dr yesterday she took my pulse and it was over 120. She asked me if I was in alot of pain. Uh yes! so if it gives up onto the next step of the journey. I am picking up some activated charcoal to help. Hope it does. Good day to all. Be safe stay strong.

I just used a heating pad it helped quite a bit as long as I used it. But still have the pain. Drinking Water. Going to have hot tea. The dr office called to make sure I wasn't having problems. Told her about the gas...walking and heating pad. I feel very weak don't know how much walking I can do but will give it my best today. Going to sams club this afternoon to get a few things get some walking in there. How r u doing? Going to be back on liquids for a day then soft for a day? You'll make it . Disappointing but only a few days. Good luck.

I back on Clear Liquids for the next two days. my mind over matter just flew the coop. I am on my 2nd to last day of clears. Iam sooo hungry that I decided to have about 3-4 oz of skim milk. I drank very slowly but to my chagrin my gas pains in my throat area are now in my collarbone area, left and mid- chest areas and some in the back. Has anyone experienced this? OUCH!!!

Thank you. Prayer is powerful and does get results. I missed sunday service yesterday still feeling quiessy. But I do thankyou for your kindness. It does go a long way in combatting combat fatigue. I say prayers most days and try to get in the habit but miss alot of times but kindnesses are always rewarded and rewarding to the person giving them. At least I feel that way. But I am just having a pity party. Usually strong and self reliant. My dh is quite the helper at times and does give his love unconditionally so that helps keep me going too. Have a great day...you deserve it.
