Gas Pains?

How long did you have issues with gas pain? I'm 2 1/2 weeks post op, and still experience sharp pains on my left side and center just under my left breast. It is worse after drinking, and this pain is not helped by walking, but Gas-X does seem to help. I am walking regularly. It's the only pain/issue I have had. I am still on full liquid diet. I remember gas pain lasting a long time after my lap band, but it was all in my shoulder. Anyone else experience this and how long did it last?

Thanks. 3 weeks tomorrow. Definitely has gotten better, but still getting them. Trying to get more walking in, but the weather has not been cooperating! So much rain!
