How many days did you have gas? Where did you get yours done? How was your experience?

Hey uptwist. I was banded at day one health downtown. i had the referred left shoulder gas pain for about two and a half weeks! UGH! gas x doesnt touch it cuz it's not in the stomach it left over in the abdominal cavity. i did finally get some relief from walking on the treadmill, but that didnt realy help my when i was sitting in church or at work.( excuse me pastor i know you're preaching but can i just take a quick jog around the sanctuary, i'll be right badk) ummmm yeah dont think that would have went over to well! LOL! feel free to add me as a friend and PM with any questions

I'm glad to know it's not just me then...I was banded on 6/17 in Delaware, but ended up in the ER with my doctor. He took some Fluid out of the band and loosened it up some--I had the worst heartburn in my life until then. It's gone down considerably, but I'm still fighting all that other gas. The worst part, I think, is now looking bigger than before--all that bloating has made me look about 12 months pregnant! I'd like to at lease SEE my progress Good luck, everyone!
