Ask someone to go to the chemist and buy you some De Gas tablets. You are experiencing gas pain. It will pass soon. But try to burp and fart if you can! Sounds gross, but it may help.

Thank you so much. It was a really rough 24 hours after but they let me go home today. 1 day earlier than expected as I was up and about. Unable to sleep. I've got some endone - god send and am on soups, drinking youghert, shakes and tea. Feeling good. Just a bit tight still. I'm so comPletely happy. Thank you all for your kind words. I'm so happy I have you all to share this with. I'm down 6 kg since last week.
Love. Lauren. Xxxxxx

Congrats on your sleeve, the discomfort should pass in a day or two don't be afraid to use pain relief if you need it and walk as much as you are up too, the walking really helps get rid of gas pains.

Hi All !!!!
Well its happened - I had my surgery yesterday, last night was rough, I have really tight pains in the middle of my lower chest, walking arounds helps this.
How long should I expect this discomfort to last for?
