Recommended Posts

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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
