I had hiatus surgery over a year ago and my stomach has not been the same. Much gas and bloating. Anyone else had this problem and did you ever find a solution?

      My wife had a fundoplication 4-years ago and still has the gas problem. I think it may be forever. My wife finds relief using Gas-X.
