Gas & Bloating after surgery!!! EEK

    I'm not sure how many of you have experienced this, but I was so uncomfortable after surgery due to gas and bloat. I took milk of magnesia, ex lax strips, and dulcolax. The dulcolax helped initially but the gas kept coming. I recently went to the health food store and purchased a chewable digestive enzyme and it helped alleviate the gas and bloat! I now take a chewable tab in the morning and one in the evening to help my tummy digest all of the lovely protein it's been getting. I just wanted to share this information just in case there was anyone else out there experiencing painful gas/bloat. Thanks!!

    >>Oh and I have a pic of the digestive enzyme I'm using on my page just incase you're interested in trying it. Take care and best wishes!

    You're all welcome but you might want to start w/ 1 enzyme. I'm not a doc but this is how I determined how well my body tolerated this vitamin.... Thanks Ms. S you can just click on my avatar and you should be given the option to view my profile, the pictures should on the left side of my profile page.
