purplecatlover 5 Posted November 24, 2014 I am 3 days post-op and I am miserable. I can't burp and I don't know what to do about that. Also, I can smell this horrid odor coming from my body and not sure why - thinking lack of carbs but how do I get rid of it if so? I would REALLY appreciate some thoughts. Thank you!

Luvin_Life125 558 Posted November 24, 2014 The odor you are experiencing is most likely your body metabolizing the anesthesia. Anesthesia stinks and it takes a while for your body to get rid of it all. Usually by 5 days post op you should notice it getting significantly better. COngrats on your surgery and good luck!

sunflowerchild 146 Posted November 24, 2014 The more you walk the more likely you'll be able to burp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
