i have been banded since march of 07 and all of a sudden have terrible gas pains every time i eat!!! what is going on? i did have a fill yesterday but i had them for a 3 days b4 that...it doesnt matter what i eat orhow much, no matter what without fail it happens, i take like 6or 7 gas x a day just to get by..but the pain is pretty bad until it goes away..it feels like the pains i had when i had my c sections..any advice or reason why this might be happening now?

I still get them, too - I got some Beano tablets, and I chop them up with my pill cutter and take them before I eat. They have some digestive enzyme that helps with gas. I also use gas x, but not too often. I'd have to say, that is the only thing I don't like!
