I have not had surgery yet, but read this board ALOT!!

i hear gas x strips work and walking is best. i would check with my dr. about the strip first tho.

good luck to you!!

I was told to walk, walk, walk, and I did, even a couple hours after surgery. Didn't help a bit. The gas x did more than anything, but really, sometimes it just takes time. You need to walk for many other reasons, though. So do that anywaybiggrin.gif,

gas-x strips (as many as you want), heating pad (lifesaver!), and walk when you can. I was VERY flatulent for the forst 2 weeks or so after surgery. I never farted so much in my life!!! But, it really does help.

I also slept with a heating pad for the first 3 weeks.
