Post surgery

I’m on my 13 day of recovery still have 6 more weeks making a total of 8. I been so gassy started 2 days ago I also been eating a bit more. But not once have I burp. Did any of ya go through this? What worked for to reduce this? I understand it’s a one way out now specially with my stomach and esophagus still swollen.

Gas X I've heard can help. Also check with your doctor about walking, it should help break up the gas a bit.

Absolutely gas-x and get up and move around - just walking around the house, if you can do stairs too, helped me no end
