:tt2: OMG I burp like an erupting volcano! No matter what I eat or drink it is like turning a soda bottle upside down...water passes through my band and AIR comes up! I am embarassed to eat out since the gas comes about half way through my meal. (well it did) Since my fill earlier this month I have the "something is stuck" feeling then a huge belch...followed my 2-3 more. My son thinks it is funny! Some times I have to get up and walk around to get it moving. I have tried GasEx chewables and it helps when I need to burp and cant but as for stopping it completly I only wish!

Hello all, I just joined the forum and am looking forward to talking with everyone. I was banded on 19 Dec and have had one fill. I am looking to see what kind of experience others have had and maybe pass on some of my own.
