:eek: Not exactly sure what's going on here... I don't go to my doctor until Aug 27th, but it seems as though I am getting severley bloated everyday!!! It happens at night usually, although I woke up one morning because of it. And it is strange because it doesn't feel like the same kind of "bloaty" feeling I had before surgery, it's almost a sharp pain right where my stomach is (not nauseas though). I have been taking gas-x and it seems to help after a couple hours. I was just curious, is this normal? Does this problem go away after time? I was banded on 7/1/08 and I just started solids last Tuesday... could this be some more healing going on? Help!

Yes, it is part of the healing as well as gas. I would take a gas x strip when it happens. Sounds like it goes away which is a good thing.
