So for a laparoscopy, they have to fill you up with gas like a balloon so they can get around in there I guess.

The gas is very uncomfortable and lasts a few days (I feel it all the way up to my shoulders)

The ONLY way to get rid of it is farting. One fart at a time, I am slowly feeling better. Please pray I fart more though🫂 I could really use a big one before bed.


:pepeclown:


Keep moving. Keep farting.


Did they go in there with an ice cream scoop? 🍦


I’m trying! Moving sucks, but I’m doing it anyways


Probably lol


I'm so jealous


Sorry that you are feeling bad.
Did you try a hand stand?


Been there done that got the tshirt. A few times. Including once for weight loss surgery and once for cancer surgery. You’ll get passed this and being up to making us all laugh in no time.


Oh but I was right and my doctor was wrong. He said there was no way it was endo because all the pain was in my back. Turns out my uterus and retroverted and she cut out three chunks that were pushing back there.
🖕🖕🖕
Fuck yeah PPO insurance, I self referred.


Look up some fart-asana in Yoga


Of the gas? I can bottle you some. It will cost you though 😂


Not supposed to yet, although I am very good at handstands 😂


Farting is one of the essential joys of life


Awww man that’s gnarly! It’s just so crazy that I’m over here begging God for a fart


Oh absolutely


I’m a little freaked out, and am wondering what in the vegan heck you’re doing to yourself. Getting blown up like a balloon, and moving at the same time? Is this some sort of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory thing?


Have you tried Benadryl?


That’s what it feels like. I feel like I could honestly float away at any minute 😂

They told me about the gas, I just didn’t know how noticeable it was gonna be


Maybe watching Happy Gilmore will help it pass faster


Or jumping around?


Not yet. Idk if I can take that while I’m still on the pain meds. I get nervous because I’m still on a bunch of stuff for like another day, but then I can try


Mostly a slow waddle is all I can offer right now as far as movement 😭


Oh goodness... I was joking... didn't expect it to have medical repercussions lol


When I’m recovered, I’m going back to yoga finally!


Makes sense! My wife had crazy itching from gas after a C-section and Benadryl really helped.


I'm rootin' for you pootin'!


Do they use this gas stuff for c sections too?

I have a lot of itching 😢


Yes. Apparently!


Awww thanks Joe!


You just need a big hug to squeeze it out of yeah🫂


I remember learning that it can cause back pain and I’m an idiot.

This slow-mo implosion of the current system is not going to be fun to navigate, but it needs to die.


I don’t really blame him. I read a study of a bunch of doctors and a large percentage don’t feel comfortable diagnosing or treating endo. That’s why I was like fuck you, I’m seeing a specialist 😎


I’m a baby and I’m scared that’s gonna hurt


Empathy. Hey babe … I’ve had my tummy cut open five times … & dealt with laparoscopies too. Cause issues.

Here are some things that have helped me in the past 🙏

If you can’t or won’t take Gas-X you might try activated charcoal. Heat or ice to “pop” the bubbles.

Get some pear juice if possible. It will make bowel movements easier.

Drinking peppermint or ginger tea helps you pass it too. 🙏💜🫂


Ok my mother in law is shopping for me tomorrow so I will ask her. I’m not really someone who cares about oversharing so I will admit , I haven’t really pooped yet 🤦♀


May the #fartstr be with you.


Many blessings 🙏🙏🙏🙏


Facts. We don’t.


Damn what a funny movie 😂 gotta do a rewatch when this shit is done


Watch all of them now. You’ll be laughing so hard you’ll fart all that gas out in record time!


I knowwww but laughing kind of hurts. I had to turn of trailer park boys and switch to true crime for now 😅


I've had lap surgeries, and the gas aching your shoulders is a really weird feeling. I had just had my gall bladder removed, and had a ticket to the second Hobbit movie, opening night, in fancy-vision, whatever the hot cinema tech was at the time. Sat through that bitch, not a short movie, in pain, mostly from the gas. Harshest movie experience to date for me, and I've been to a lot in the theater.

Of course, also hard to keep the farts in; poor bastards around me may have suffered a bit too. Packed theater, keeping it quiet - who's to know?

Get better soon - and stay out of theaters for a few days ;)

Also the best are giant morning farts! Or so my wife claims, I don't really have much to offer after going carnivore.


can you move? :o yoga helps w passing gas lol


I can do very light moment. I’m not supposed to bend I guess or do anything strenuous for a few weeks. I basically just waddle around RN


Let’er rip tater chip!


I had one I sure of, but it got scared and crawled back up there


magnesium? (maybe?)


then just slight walks will help you the most, most likely, hope you have lots of farts <3

Dude I need some. I’m ready for a suppository. I give no fucks


Its for a real serious gut clean. Keep a toilet nearby 😂


That name is… classy


Today, I live on the toilet. I already used stool softeners and a suppository, but those opiates fucked me up and I had the most pathetic turd to show for all that effort. I will probably have to order this too 😂


Those aren't farts...


What? Lol

I had hernia surgery a few months back. Same thing. Bloat you with gas. The shoulder pain was the worst. Mine lasted 5-6 days and the actual surgery pain just cleared about 2 months in.


That’s actually super relieving to hear. I was starting to get worried it should be gone by now. It’s such an odd/distracting feeling


I could feel the gas roll around in my gut region too for that entire time. It just makes you feel fat and bloated for quite a bit longer than you think.


Yeah I feel fat as fuck right now and yucky
