DDN 58 Posted February 12, 2016 (edited) GM Feb Surgery Crew-- I found chamomile tea to be a calming agent for the gas. I'm more of a coffee drinker, but my wife made me a cup of tea with a Splenda when I started experiencing gas pains in my left shoulder (first time since surgery)...surprisingly I was relieved within 5 minutes or so. I'm not sure if it made a huge difference, but our brand of choice was Mighty Leaf Chamomile Citrus Herbal Tea. I thought it was worth sharing. We will try peppermint tea at some point today.
