ronniek 0 Posted August 31, 2010 Hello everyone, This is my 4th day after surgery and everyday I am feeling better. However, I am having trouble releasing gas and that makes me feel miserable. Any suggestions? It was a long journey to get to this point but it was worth it. I live in a small town in southeast Texas, 30 minutes from the border of Louisiana. I hope to make many friends and supporters and in return support others. My number one question at this moment is should I be feeling hungry? Confused?

erikavonne 4 Posted August 31, 2010 Hi Ronnie. Congrats with your surgery! I just got approved and will have mine on the 13th. I've heard that walking and taking some of those Gas-X strips helps a lot with reducing the discomfort of gas pains. I hope you feel better soon. I know each day will get better and better for you. :001_cool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
emilygrace 5 Posted September 1, 2010 Not sure how you mean, but I used a heat pack constantly for shoulder tip gas pains, and Gas-X for the gut wind pain issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ronniek 0 Posted September 3, 2010 Thanks Erika, I know you are so ready. It seemed to took a long time before my big day came, then all of a sudden it was here. I finally walked the gas off. Yeah! Everyday gets better and better. My prayers will go up for you on the 13th. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
