I was banded on October 9th 2006. It has been a month and 1/2 since my surgery and I am having gas pains. I am thinking that this is because it is a one way value and the gas is not able to come up and out. I took gas-ex and it seems to help, but just wondering if anyone else out there has this problem and does it go away? or is this something I will have to live with while I have the band on?
