Terrible gas pain

I was awoken in the middle of the night with what I believe was gas pain. It started in what felt like my intensities and slowly and painfully worked its way down. The pain was pretty bad - I hobbled around the apartment to find the gas x strips which eventually helped and the pain went away. Anyone experience anything like this?

Thanks much :)

    When I eat a lot of protein and veggies I tend to get very gassy. If I were you, I'd start paying close attention to your food log and see if there is a certain type of food triggering it.

Wow ! So sorry that happened to you! Are you feeling better today? I was fine after the gas-x kicked in. Is this just a common thing with the lap band? I'm about 2.5 months post op and have never had any gas issues.

Thanks - that's a good idea. I did actually have a lot of veggies, particularly spinach and eggplant and I thought maybe that was part of it.
