ljperez 87 Posted January 17, 2013 Walk as much as you can. Relax and remember it will go away and a couple of days you will be feeling like a new person. It does get better. Walk Walk Walk. Did I say walk. Congrats and welcome to the looser's bench. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheNEWME! 121 Posted January 17, 2013 I agree with ljperez... Walk Walk Walk and Walk some more. I actually even had my husband pat me on the back like a baby to help with the gas since it seemed to be isolated in my upper back. Not sure how much it helped but I was willing to try ANYTHING! Some people say GasX strips helps... but honestly I tried that and I didn't really notice much. So best piece of advice, hang in there and WALK WALK WALK! Good Luck!

2013newme 42 Posted January 17, 2013 oh yes - and to add to the above... WALK :-)!!! Good luck - it gets better in a day or so! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fonally 108 Posted January 17, 2013 I was sleeved Jan 9 and this was my problem so this is the key walk about one city block three times a day. My DR said this is what they mean by walk. I suffered for DAYS because I was walking enough now that I walk it is almost gone. My DR said gas x is only for gas in your stomach and won't help air caught in body cavity. Moving helps it dissipate. Hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
