Congrads on working on the new you!! Did your Doctor tell you to wear support socks at night to bed.. Walk every 2 hours for the first 24 hours. It helps

Thanks everyone. SO tell me how does this gas ever come out? I am not burping or tooting....but I am walking around my house like crazy bc that's the only way I am comfortable!

The pain is mostly in my shoulder and back....over it! I'm not sure how I will sleep tonight...can't sleep on my feet.

I want to tell I used heat pads to losen the gas in my shoulder.. The gas hurt more than my incisions
