lasunshine 28 Posted September 24, 2014 Congrats on being banded welcome. I was fortunate to not experience any gas pain at all, as my surgeon had me walking literally 2 hours after surgery. Here is a suggestion I slept upright for 4 days and walk every single day twice a day. I think that made all the difference. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
