Over 2 years after the Whipple for me: what you are experiencing sounds like the gas movements I have. I would never have believed gas hurt so much! And my pancreatic cancer has now moved into peritoneal carcinomatosis--what works for me is a little walk (indoor or outdoor) after eating, camomile and peppermint tea (plain), and yes, Gas X. If diarrhea accompanies, Immodium now has an extra ingredient for soothing. And a heating pad occasionally. Pain-wise, I feel good; tired and weak, not so good. I hope some things you have control over might help you a bit...Carrie (85 years and hoping for another)

That's incredible, Carrie. I like your strength! What medical treatment are you taking for the peritoneal carcinoma?
