5 Days Out. How Do I Get Rid Of Extra Gas?



Recommended Posts

Hi, I am 5 days post op and I keep feeling like I need to burp really bad. Nothing happens, and I am taking the gas x strips too. It really hurts. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you have one of the magic bags the heat seems to help, it will pass.

This is going to sound really silly, but if you get on your hands and knees and then lower your upper body, that will help the gas move.

My rocking chair was a great help to get rid of the gas.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
