We all get gas Just let it out walking helps. and burping

As far as complication I dident have any, except side affects from blood pressure Med's they put me on. Till doctor pulled me off them. Blood pressure was getting to low causing me to get light headed after he pulled me off no problems.

We all have been though it and could tell you what to do but if you are having complications please call your doctor

Yup. Burping, passing gas, you got a lot of gas to expel, and your system is going thru changes. My surgery was May 29, 2012, and all went well for the first 45 days. Complications began as I transitioned to more solid foods. That's when I found that my pouch hole was WAY too small, and reluctantly I had to have three endoscopies and balloon dilations to widen my opening from 1.5 mm to a final 15 mm. Not a fun time to have those procedures, but 2 weeks after the last one, all is good and getting gooder. Don't let my situation scare you, as the odds are low that it will apply to you. But, evaluate your own physical signals as you progress, and ask lots of questions. Kudos for taking the leap, and best wishes for the days, weeks, and months to follow...
