I am extremely gassy since this Monday!!

I am not generally a gassy person, so for it to continue this long, I know it's not something I ate.

It's getting worse, and I work in an office with people coming & going constantly so I am having to go run down the hall to an empty office to let it out (lol, picture it?!). And spraying my body splash stuff.

My obgyn is a voicemail system, and they don't call me back for at least 24 hours.. anyone know if you can take gas-x? Or a good home remedy for it? :smile2:

I was googling, some people say don't take anything during 1st trimester, another site said it's fine.

One of them mentioned pre-natal Vitamins cause gassiness, so I wonder if that's the culprit!

My ob gave me a list of OTC meds I can take and although there isn't specifically a gas medication, you can take tums or pepcid. Maybe they'll help.

LOL no problem. I asked my mom about it, and she thinks I shouldn't take anything during the 1st trimester either.. so I'm burning a Yankee Candle in my office :lol:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
