Day 5 Post Op! Still lots of gas/air :(

Any suggestions other than walking? Ive been walking an hour everyday since surgery.

Gas x strips or chewables....... I'm 2+ weeks out and still use them for tummy gas.

Gax X strips worked for me almost instantly I was burping and well... you know. It took a good 2 days to get out a majority of the gas. Walking helps to an extent, but not more than the strips in my opinion. My doc also suggested switching from lactaid milk for my shakes to soy or almond milk, that helped. Sometimes even skim milk, eggs or other foods on the stage 3 food list can cause gas. You gotta find what works for you

I'm six days out - first thing I did when I got home was take some gas-X - wonderful product!

Took me over 2 weeks. I did peppermint tea, heating pads and gas X. Nothing worked. My body just had to reabsorb it.

Edit: It looks like it worked for others, though, so always worth a try!
