Hello everyone! I am new to this. I just got banded 6/4/09. Everything went well. Incisions healing great, however I have constant burping, and the pain from this gas is a killer. Is this normal? It does not matter what I eat(full liquids) or drink..even water. I hope this passes cause this is so painful!:ihih:

It is normal, I was banded on 5/28, the best thing you can do is walk walk walk, this helps the gas that is built up from the surgery to get absorbed and eliminated. Some also say gas-x strips help. Hang in there it does get better.
