neveragain 9 Posted March 29, 2007 ...or some crazy gas in my stomach that won't freaking go away and I'm dying here. It isn't the CO2, either. Oh yes, I have the rest of the day on Clear Liquids and then I start on full liquids. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mpalen 0 Posted March 29, 2007 I was banded on the 22nd I just made it through the first week of the liquid diet --- the worst part is over I did not like the recovery at all. I hope all went well. Maybe we can help eachother I feel like I live on this reading everyones comments. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stacy16 0 Posted March 30, 2007 I was banded on the 16th of March and I still have a little gas I think. It won't come out though. It's stuck in my stomach and moves around, but it won't come out. In the beginning I thought I was hungry but I know now I am not. This is my first surgery and this is quite an experience. Stacy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wantmeback 0 Posted March 30, 2007 Hi, I just wanted to let you know I'm going through the same thing. I was banded on the 26th...My stomach is aching BAD....I think it will be better when we can get something a little more solid in our stomachs. For me, the pains come in waves. I never have done well when I'm hungry, or....nothing in my stomach (same thing to me). My stomach growls a lot and I feel "sick to my stomach". I think this would be the normal for anyone just drinking liquids and no real food. I am trying to drink more broth and stay away from all the sugary juices....that seems to be helping a bit tonight. Take care and hang in there...we'll make it:) Cyndy in Oregon ...or some crazy gas in my stomach that won't freaking go away and I'm dying here. It isn't the CO2, either.

juliegeraci 7 Posted March 30, 2007 I used Gas X strips. If you are hungry eat some creamy Soup. You can have anything that fits through a straw. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
danielle 0 Posted March 30, 2007 Hi I had my op last Friday 22/3/07 and feel (almost) normal today Fri 30/3/07. The pain of the op was bearable but the gas was not. Thankfully it has gone now. Keep going it gets better. DC Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
