Gas pains 8 months out!?!?!?

I am about 8 months out and recently have had a couple episodes of EXTREMELY painful gas. It goes to my back and makes it hard to breath. It is easily relieved by 2 chewable gas x, and it has only happened about 4 times. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

    Yuppers. It sucks @$$!!! I would do my sleeve 100 times over than having my gallbladder out. If we can live without it, I don't even know why we have the dang thing in the first place! I know it serves a purpose when it is in you, but you can also function fine without it!

    Yes!! I hardly had any pain post sleeve! This is so crazy!! I haven't had a bm since Wednesday am so I took 2 colace tonight hoping that does it, but I haven't eaten much either.

    I was on liquids the whole time after and couldn't have a bm, so they had to give me an enema before they would let me go home. I walked and walked and that didn't do a dang thing!
