My Doctor recommended Phazyme for the gas. It's over the counter and comes in little bitty gel caps.

I think gas pains are so awful! I was miserable with them! I used the gas x and my doctor also gave me a medicine me called levsin to help with stomach spasms I wonder if you have those too. I thought it was all gas but it was spasms too after I got that medicine I felt so much better!

I go back to the doctor on Tuesday and I am going to ask!!! Because this pain is the worst. If I didn't have gas pain I would feel 95 percent the gas pains make me 35 percent

Did your doctor give you some advice? You should have received a menu for the different diet stages from your NUT

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
