minnie78 17 Posted February 17, 2013 I got sleeved yesterday morning and I've been in so much PAIN!!!!! Right on the gut of my stomach I feel this horrible pain, it's gas I've walked so much it's crazy. Did anyone go thru this as well???:,( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kimbernada 190 Posted February 17, 2013 I honestly never had any gas pain from surgery. I know others HAVE had gas pain like you've described. I was thinking that Gas-X strips worked for that, but maybe I'm wrong. (That's been known to happen before.) Walking is the best thing for getting the surgery gas out of the system.

lessofmeismore 1,405 Posted February 17, 2013 The worst pain for me was the surgical gas... It was like a constant unrelenting labor contraction... I'm so sorry your hurting but walk walk walk... It will go away it just takes several days of moving Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stef 264 Posted February 18, 2013 The residual CO2 bothered me for about a week. I was walking every day but it just wanted to hang around. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
