Feeling gassy 3 weeks after laparoscopy - normal?

[Tash28]

Hi guys,

I had a laparoscopy over two weeks ago and they didn’t find any endo. I’ve been healing well but I’ve noticed that often when I eat I can become really gassy and feel really uncomfortable. This did not happen before I had the surgery.

Is this normal and has anyone else experienced this?

Yeah it's totally normal. They pump you full of air to get a good look inside at everything. I had mine 4 weeks ago and still feeling it. Nothing to worry about though. Good luck with your recovery xxx
