ledavis13 33 Posted July 11, 2012 Surgery went well today. Hurting pretty bad in my chest from gas, like someone is standing in it, but overall not so bad. I've been able to have Jello broth and lots of Water so far. Drugs help!! Sent from my iPhone using LapBandTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

agerpay1 5 Posted July 14, 2012 Milk of magnesia helped me with gas pain right after surgery! Day 9 for me now & I am using gas x strips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Antwan 9 Posted July 14, 2012 Hang on in there. I'm three days in and I started walking first day soon after surgery but on the other hand the more you walk the better push through. Walking relieves getting blood clots and helps work the gas out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
