Hey sweetie..my gas is still bad also..haven't passes much and until yesterday it was hard to breathe! I alternate between heat and an ice pack. My shoulder pain is the worst of it

.take your pain meds! Absolutely no shame in that! Praying you feel better soon. Oh and for me the gas x made it where I couldn't pass gas but that was my experience .

As of today I'm actually feeling a lot better. I feel almost back to my normal self except now I'm hungry and my stomach is rumbling and gurgling like a earthquake lol. I want food so badly today and I'm so sick of Protein Shakes tht they make my stomach turn. I'll feel like I'm actually getting a hold of thngs. Thankful I'm doing better...prayer and Water have def helped.

What really helped my gas pains was laying on a heating pad for 5min on each side and rotating until I passed some gas. Also everyone keeps saying warm liquids...didn't do anythng for my gas/pain...I drank ice cold Water and Gatorade.

Hi guys

Feeling so much better, 90% of gas pain has gone.. Started to eat my soft food, which can sometimes trigger off gas pain again.

But over all feeling good.

I'm still a little tender around the port area and actually can feel it myself... Not very attractive

I am 7 days post op and the gas pain is horrible!! I have the worst pain in my left shoulder blade area. I also cannot seem to burp much. I did burp last night and the pain in my shoulder subsided but was back this morning. What to do??

Hi, it will come and go, take your pain killers can give you some comfort

The best healer for gas pain is time. I had a horrible time for two weeks,just only now I feel much better.

Try and walk as much as you can and just hang in there :))

Good luck

Hey I feel for you..I had that too. Sipping Water slower helps and alternating between heat and an ice pack helped me. If you can find it I've been told that anise tea helps as well.

      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.
