valeentina22 1 Posted January 21, 2017 Hi guys I just had my gastric sleeve done 3 days ago, but I'm feeling a lot of gas. How long after the surgery can I expect the gas to go away ? What can I do to help ? Thank you !! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Denise.ludwig 0 Posted January 21, 2017 Don't forget to walk. Walking and gas x strips are the key. Sent from my SM-G920V using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Luce587 48 Posted January 21, 2017 I found that my gas discomfort returned when I went home and slept on my bed (not upright as in hospital). It only lingered a day or two and eased when I sat up and walked around the house. I'm 11 days out. ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
valeentina22 1 Posted January 21, 2017 Are you still experiencing gas 11 days after? I'm only 3 days out and I think the gas goes to my back and causes pain. I'll try not to lay completely, unfortunately I can't find the gas x strips here :/ Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
