Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 Hey Angie, Are you sure its gas? I thought I was having gas pains and after a year when it got soo bad I just couldnt handle it anymore, I finally went to the Dr and they found out I had an ucler. My pain would start about 30 to 45 minutes after I ate or sometimes if my stomach was empty and it would hurt in my belly and my back. They gave me medication (which they say is ok for me to take when I get pregnant) and it felt sooo much better. Now as long as I take the meds everyday I have no pain.

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2004 Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 well, I went to L & D and they monitored me. All they said was it WASN " T contractions or anything effecting the babies I am carring. Which was relieving. I am very very very sore in my upprt tummy area. It felt like contractions in my tummy. I was thinking maybe I had something stuck in my stoma.... and it finally worked thru. They said it was gas so I was going ny what they said. If it keeps happeneing I am gonna go to the doc to get checked . Angie EDD 4-21-04 Twins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 6, 2004 Report Share Posted January 6, 2004 I've been a " gasbag " since my WLS a year ago, with it increasing dramatically since being pregnant. It is only painful sometimes- usually it's just ever present and dying to get out, one way or another. I have used Gas-X at times, especially at work (LOL)!
