I had my vsg 4 days ago and I’ve been having issues with the bloating and air, it seems stuck in my chest and I can’t seem to drink so much Water, I have walked and walked but sometimes just feel this discomfort in my stomach. What can I do please?

Walk, walk, walk. That's the quickest and most effective way to dispel the gas. Also, when you're resting or sleeping, a heating pad also works wonders. That's really all you can do. It WILL get better, but it can be really annoying and painful until it does.

Hang in there. Is was so hard. I’m 13 days post just now able to get Water down better. Luke warm is best. Cause cold causes the esophagus to constrict harder. I can’t believe water 💦 is still the hardest part. I don’t think mine was gas in the chest I felt more like just swelled so I kept ice packs on center for days. And took spasm med round clock. It was the hardest days I’ve ever been through. I can smile today. So will you again.
