Gas X definately saved me, I'm on my last two strips lol. That pain I asked about is a burp trying to get through the band..Ughh, doctor said I will have to re-teach myself to burp, how ladylike lol

Thank goodness it went away! Tomorrow is one week since surgery and everyday gets better and better. Thank god for gas-x strips and walking! lol Good luck all!

Does anyone else have pressure in their chest? I had a hernia fixed too, thinking that may be what is wrong..

Can your band slip dueto morning sickness? I sawthat brought up on a different forum...

just got banded yesterday...pain is there and annoying as the gas pains are too. im parnoid about everything i almost wish i stayed in the hospital. my surgeon is awesome and so were the members of the staff on the step down unit. when does the soreness go away?
