Guest guest Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 , I had open rny but I know several that had theirs lap and we all had excessive gas in the beginning. That's one of the reasons why you need to walk as much as you can. Walking helps get rid of the gas. Glad your home and doing better. Good luck and God bless!

Guest guest Posted August 4, 2004 Report Share Posted August 4, 2004 Walking is definately the best thing to get rid of the gas and yes your belly is probably still full of gas from surgery. I know mine was for a week or more afterwards! The pain will subside and you will start to feel better each day. Just be patient with yourself and get plenty of rest and walk a lot, drink a lot and try to keep a positive outlook. It will all go a long way towards good healing!
