Waking around is number 1. Then something like gas-x.

I've been walking around and I have the heating pad on. Plus, I taken 2 teaspoons of mustard. That has helped me some since I posted. Since you guys surgery, do either of you occasionally experience trap gas or is it just me? I stay so bloated now since my surgery. It will be 2 years in February.

I take something called Devrom. It is made to help the lovely smell of gas, but it also helps the bloated feeling for me. Since my surgery my gassy smell has been horrible. Devrom makes it much better and gets rid of the gassy feeling all together.

@Music1619 Thanks for the info. Where do you purchase it or do you order it on line?

Yeah just google Devrom and you will go to their website.

My husband says they are a God send. That man really loves me to tolerate the new odors that the surgery has produced.

@Music1619 I understand...lol The smell is just awful. I'm really lying in bed wondering if I had a dumping. My stomach is still hurting....The last time I went through this I ended up at the doctor because everything I ate started my stomach to hurting. But this feeling didn't start until earlier today. I decided I was going to attempt the Liver Strink Diet again that my doctor requested 2 weeks before surgery. Only because I wanted to set a goal to come out of the 200's. I'm at 205 now....But I may have to cut this goal short if this is going to keep happening. I'm just literally scared to eat anything now.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
