Syaniya 319 Posted May 21, 2017 Ok! I'm scared of this gas you all speak of so I will. Congrats and dont be scared of the gas. I had absolutely NONE! I too was all worried and prepared for the pain because of the stories. I actually had a pain pump and kept hitting the button in anticipation of the gas, lol. Pain meds made me nauseous and after they switched me to percocet, no pain, never had gas, great recovery. Remember that everyone is different, pray for a painless, gasless recovery.

Don't open unless you must have it. Return it if you don't need/use it after discharge. You'll know before discharge if you need it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
