GAS X STRIP? PILL?

[WinningLoser 10]

Hi,

Tommorrow is the DAY 4 me at 7:30 AM! Question, I have seen people mention needing GAS X. They refer to it as a strip? Is this something you put on your tongue? Or is it simply the pill?

Thanks in advance for your replies and help! I am so nervous about tommorrow!!!!!

Yes, it's a strip you place on your tongue and it dissolves.

These dont work because the gas is not inside your digestive tract (like if you ate Beans etc) it is free in your abdomen and put there by your surgeon to puff the cavity up so he can see around...just have to let it diffuse out of your tissue over time and walking seems to help.

Yes, the Gas-X won't help with the gas they use for surgery, but it WILL help with the gas you'll have much more of in your digestive tract than you used to.
