:smile:Hi my name is Cristy I just had lapband done on Monday 10/4. I am so happy i finally got it done. I am having problem with the gas. It is stuck in my chest and feels like really bad heartburn, It makes me want to cry. I have been getting up and walking, drinking warm fluids, and doing my incentive spirometer, and it is still there. It is frustrating cuz it hurts so bad. I havent tried the gas x yet but I am going to get some today. I still have no regrets about the surgery and I am very excited to get better and start seeing and feeling results!!!
