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.
