Gas

[goya 7]

I hear gas is a big issue after surgery...are Gas X strips allowed?

[T'snewstart 251]

Yes...yes and yes they saved me..... I still use them and I am almost 4 months out. Stock up on them!

Yes they do but remember most people's pain is the surgical gas they fill your abdomen with... The only way to move that out is to walk walk walk and walk some more. Everyday will be an improvement. Gas x will help as well for intestinal gas.

Yes, like T said...they are amazing!

How many do you take at once? In 2 days post op and needing some. I have 2 with me but should I just do 1 for now?
