I thought it was just me. I am not 3 months out, I am only 1 month out. I have never had gas like this in my life. I don't do the passing of it around my hubby, but since this surgery, I have been apologizing for my manners(passing of the gas). He don't mind, but its a thing that I would prefer to be alone when it happens. this feeling is so bad, sometimes I dont know if its gas or something else. Sorry if its to much information.

I have tried my gasX too, but no relief.

I will be checking in on your blog again to see what others posts.:unsure:

:unsure: I am so glad I don't feel alone!! I have always had lots of gas issues, but I was banded on 6/7/10 and the gas has elevated!! I am curious as to why this occurs. I don't drink carbonated sodas either!!:unsure:

Is that why my left shoulder aches? I wasn't warned about that side effect.

Thanks for sharing!!

OMG! I was wondering the same thing. A friend told me that Protein gives gas. I'm not sure but I sure have a lot more than before surgery, I am 2 months post-op. Will it ever stop?:unsure:

      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.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
