How do you get rid of so much gas/bloat I'm so swollen and tight it's really uncomfortable I can eat as much as a half a cup of food and/or drink and be extremely bloated and can't get rid of it I'm currently taking gas x everyday (5 weeks post NF/HHR)

time. its a lousy after effect, of this operation. at a year and half out, i still deal with it. water helps to get things moving. at this stage your, insides are not to happy with you. stay hydrated, much more important, than how little you feel, like eating right now.

Kasey, have you tried walking? That seems to eliminate some of the bloating, and continue with the gas-x. Have you introduced any new foods since the surgery? Sometimes you need to go back to the simple foods and progress more slowly. You are really early into recovery, I didn't notice much improvement until around the 6-month mark, and the "new" me at around a year. You might want to follow-up with your surgeon to discuss your concerns.
