Hi I am having the same symstoms myself. The gas pains are so bad it is scary. The doctor empitied the band to see if that would help. My stomach feels sore and every move I make I feel it in my stomach. Everything I eat makes my stomach cramp. I do not know what to do. I had an upper GI done today and waiting to get the results back.
