Okay, don't laugh. But I have had bad smelly gassy farts since surgery. It is especially bad at night. I am embarrased by this and hate when my husband walks in the room and asks what smells. I try to blame it on my son, great mom huh, but I am sure my husband knows. So here is my questions. Is it common? I know gas can be but people are vague wether it is stomach gas or butt gas. How do I get rid of it. I do have gasex but again thought it is more for stomach gas. I do not eat a lot of foods that usually cause gas so I have no idea where it is all coming from. Giggles are okay, kinda a funny subject to me. But help is much needed. thanks

The Protein Shakes and sugar free stuff like Jello and pudding give me mad gas. Gas-x helps butt gas. I gave it to my husband the other night haha. If it makes you feel any better, it's good that you're getting it all put because you'd feel miserable if all that built up in your tummy. Hope you get some relief soon!

I agree tengles...I blame it on my boys also...and boy it gets bad! lol I've noticed that the more artificial sweetener I have, the more gas I have...I've heard other people say that sweeteners are the trouble makers here, but not an expert, just know what happens here.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
