DrmBig4Evr 152 Posted February 19, 2013 Where did you guys find them ? My wife is having trouble locating them for me. They are typically easy to find, but you can also have her look for Gaviscon, Digel, or Papaya extract Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bree 65 Posted February 19, 2013 I feel like a total newb for asking this -- but why are you guys all getting gas-X strips? Does the surgery cause gas pain? Or is it the diet? Pardon my crudeness but...is there no way to just fart it out through the day like most folks? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vs24 25 Posted February 19, 2013 I'm told gas (air) in system to help during the surgery. Most have told me that it's not easily passed the normal way... thus the gas-x strips. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiki1196 101 Posted February 20, 2013 Couldn't find the strips but I got the chewable ones. Will they work too? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pardon my crudeness but...is there no way to just fart it out through the day like most folks? Bree... After surgery, for most folk, any added gas in the system is uncomfortable at best. I use them a couple times a day. But also, in regards to eliminating gas the normal way... There is a phrase here... "Never trust a fart." Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tashabella 52 Posted November 14, 2014 Bree, you are hilarious. I enjoyed that laugh. I'm a few days out and it doesn't hurt to laugh anymore. That was great! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
S(he) be(lie)ve(d) 151 Posted November 14, 2014 I burp A LOT. It has decreased considerably. Thank God! I take the capsule in the morning and then have the strips in my purse just in case I need them in the afternoon. Lately, I haven't had to use them very often at all. It helped in the beginning with gas pains from surgery as well. I used to even burp in my sleep, my hubby told me. So sexy! Ha ha! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
