giveyouthemoon 4 Posted March 29, 2006 Ah get used to it....gas is but one of the many fabulous side effects of being banded. Yes...it's normal. GasX is your friend. Don't be afraid to take more than the dosage recommended if the gas gets really bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
