Hi Diane,

are you sure they are gas pains? could they be pain from the surgery itself?

What did your doctor suggest for gas? I have seen people saying they use gas X strips or chewables and walk a lot. I had lots of pain but the gast was mostly on the lower abdomen and shoulder.

I hope you feel better soon.
