Looking for a cure for post-op flatulence in Ireland.

[Diaz1988 0]

I'm going for my band in two days time and I start college next week. I just read about flatulence being a side effect of the band. I'm already a human trumpet, fighting to stay silent and it'd be really embarrassing if I was to get even worse sitting in a quiet group setting. I think I'd literally leave the country.

I read about probiotic pearls but I'm not sure if you can get them in Ireland. Can anyone recommend anything?

My gas production is not any more than it was before surgery so this side effect you speak of(I've never heard it before) may not happen to all of us.

I stopped being so gassy when I realized I was gluten intolerant.

I hope I'm the same @@2muchfun . Unfortunately i suspect i may already have IBS, so if it gets worse I'm screwed!

@@MarieMarie, Did you discover you were gluten intolerant by eliminating certain foods or is there a quicker way to find out?

I think it's the gas from where the doctors fills you up with after. Reading other people's posts gas x and walking helps get rid of the gas. I also have IBS so I get gassy n campy n diarrhea after eating certain foods. It sucks

I heard papaya enzyme is good?

My go-to is Gas X strips. Discreet and works fast. Also they have them in peppermint so it freshens your breath too! GL!!!
