I have had some issues going on the last couple of days, and I am just not sure what's going on. It started yesterday with what I am assuming was really bad gas pains. Never had gas pains before, so not really sure, but it was really sharp pains, that kind of went away after taking Gas-x, and burping. So after the gas pains kind of went away I still felt tightness, and pain in the area of my band. Actually I wouldn't really call it pain, but more discomfort. I can eat and drink just fine, but still have some feelings of tightness around the band today. I don't know if it's gas, or if my band has slipped, or if I am too tight or what. I just had a fill last week, but everything was fine until yesterday. Any ideas on what could be going on?

HI~

I just wanted to let you know that I had similar symptoms last week and assumed that my band was the problem. Turns out my gall bladder was bad and I had surgery 2 days ago to have it removed. I could also eat and drink- it just really hurt around my port area and my back. Make sure you get it checked out. My gall bladder was inflamed and full of stones- potentially dangerous and I had no idea. I always assume every little ache and pain has to do with my band!
