wildrose1966 396 Posted November 22, 2012 I am over 2 months out and had a wicked one in my shoulder/next last night. It was the first one in about 4 weeks.......guess they may lurk for a while. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rojasanoll 920 Posted November 22, 2012 I only had them overnight. I used heating pad on top of my shoulders and this helped alleviate the gas. Sip lots of Water and walk, walk, walk. Hang in there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bibliophile 2 Posted November 23, 2012 My gas pains were horrific under my rib cage right after surgery. They decreased with activity and got better each day. I am now four days post-op and only feel them once in a while, they come and go but no longer really bother me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hotstuff 16 Posted November 23, 2012 The best relief for me was walking. I did buy Gas-x strips,and they worked really great along with Walking...... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
