I Could Fill Up My Mazda With All This Gas...:(

[hotpink7 0]

Hey beautiful Bandsters,

Just got home from the hospital. Everything went well but the gas is excruciating. Just being real. I'm walking, deep breathing, and took 2 GasX strips (which made me nauseated). I just need one small ray of sunshine...and any other suggestions to kick this gas to the curb. If it's a timing thing, I will wait it out, but if there are any sweet remedies out there, PLEASE - share the love!

I've heard all sorts of ideas, from walking a lot, to all the commercial products for gas, some say windmilling your arms

(in the privacy of your own home), But the only real cure is time. In two or three days you should be feeling some relief.

Lets hope so, anyway.

I just got mine done on Monday...and I am feeling your pain. Look forward to tips.

Hi! I'll be two weeks post op tomorrow. Corrigan is right.. It just takes time. I promise that each day gets better. Take your pain meds. That's about the only thing I can say actually worked to dull the pain. I also tried gas x and deep breathing. On day 3 I took a two mile walk hoping the rest of the CO2 stuck in my shoulders would go away. By day 4 I felt 100% better! Good luck! And congrats on your new band!

I shrugged my shoulders when I was not walking. You will still start feeling better soon.
