The ONLY thing that worked for me to get rid of the CO2 gas that they used to inflate my belly for surgery was WALKING, A LOT of WALKING! The more I walked, the better I felt! I had that AWFUL shoulder pain too! As far as Protein shakes, in my opinion, the best tasting is MATRIX 5.0, available at Super Suppliments in the Seattle area, ( Super supplements - Locations ) or BODY FORTRESS available at your friendly neighborhood WAL*MART.
