Hi mammyjuls, after my bypass in January I went down late afternoon and early hours got the wind pain so walked around. Seemed to get rid of it. If not the nurse gave me peppermint water. Just a couple of ideas that helped mine . It will all be worth it Good luck X

Hi thank you I will see if I can get some peppermint tea or water to take in

Hiya all I can really recommend is to listen to the nurses, they know what they are talking about. I had really awful wind. Move around as soon as you can contort your body to try and move it regular walks round the ward lifting legs up high and try to stay off too much drugs. You won't feel like moving but do it!
