How many gas-x chewables do you take at a time. I am 3 days post op and having horrible gas pains. Thanks in advance.

I have the gas x mouth strips. I am now taking Prilosec (crushed) and 1 strip and it makes me feel so much better

Thanks for the help, much appreciated.. The chewables help, just had a sugar- free Popsicle and didn't feel so bad... Slowly testing out what my stomach can tolerate... Thinking of have g broth or sf Jello. Any suggestions given I'm 3 days post op? Just got discharged today...

As you read above I had a horrible time with Water so broth, Jello, and I didn't agree much lol I tried Tomato Soup with skim milk last night and it felt amazing!!

Make sure you take something to help with acids in the morning, that has saved me a lot.

Congrats! It definitely feels good to be home, this is my third day out of the hospital :-) make sure you walk around your house a lot too. That will help with gas pains

Thanks for the great advice, yes the gas pains have been horrible but I've heard walking helps so I'm walking every half hour. The Gas-x is helping a bit too and I'm on pepcid for the next 30 days... Thanks and congrats on being home for 3 days!!!

Hello I'm 6 days post op and u have to remember that ur stomach is still swollen. So you have to take it easy. I couldn't keep anything down until I found that after having some Fluid I chase with some ice then I could get it down. I wish you the best.
