Rubydoobie 12 Posted November 24, 2013 Since having the surgery, I have had an increased problem with gas or flatulence. Has anyone else experienced this or know the cause? Do our new stomachs have difficulty digesting foods now? I'm eating slowly, chewing fully & not swallowing air so I don't think I'm contributing to the problem intentionally. I realize certain foods are more prone to causing flatulence but subjectively I've noticed more gas regardless of what's eaten. Anyone else? Pretty embarrassing. 2 New Lease On Life and LI Gemini NY reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gas pain is my new hunger pain if that makes sense. Plus I'm super gassy now and if I even try to hold my fart in, my tummy hurts!! But I just can't fart whenever I was to lol I notice when I eat certain things it worst...can't eat a lot of broccoli cabbage or lettuce.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
