You need to get up and walk around. I too have those pains but it goes away with movement. The more you move the better you will feel. I was sleeved aug 28th.

Take something with simethicone like gas-x and walk. I thought the chewable worked better than the strips. Its very common to have gas pain in the beginning.

I still get gassy but its not painful anymore.

Also try a heating pad on your upper back and chest when your resting. It really helps .
