Gas will go..it has to go !!! Walk, i got operated on 21st Jan & trust me the gas was the only trouble i had -- WALK as much as you can, ask for antiacid injection if it gets un-bearable.

Gas X did nothing for me. TUMS was the BOMB. Also if your doc did not prescribe a PPI (zantec, prilosec, etc) GET ONE. Miracles. And keep walking... once you sit, the gas bubbles settle and that can be painful.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
