The gas pains do suck. Just try to walk around so you can pass it.

Please above all things, you need to take it easy and concentrate on feeling better. If and when you can, you need to get up and walk. Great for the gas and excellent in preventing blood clots. Take it easy.....

About the cotton mouth... I felt the same. They wouldn't let me drink anything until after the xray! Eventually they figured out I was getting dehydrated, and had to give me an extra big bag of Fluid (through the iv), so watch that. Don't worry, you'll be feeling better soon. :o

the cotton mouth stuck around for a couple days!!! It sucked cause I was afraid to drink to much at once!!!

You take care of yourself. Relax, but make sure you move around enough you don't get blood clots and you get the gas working out. The more you walk the quicker it will go away!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
