LollyMoe 1 Posted September 28, 2009 Click on my ticker and it will take you to the website. Then you can choose your own and the next time you post, it will be there. Go back & change it when you have new numbers. Try walking and Gas-X for the heartburn/gas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
momamia 1 Posted September 28, 2009 I also just got banded on Sept 24th and I also had lots of gas. Walking does help get rid of it, but try using a heating pad on your stomach and it also helps. This has been a life saver and I do feel not as blotted today, but it still early. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gbakerc 2 Posted September 28, 2009 If I am not mistaken they put Carbon Dioxide in you. For some reason I did not bloat or have much gas pain. I have not had gas pain since the 1st day. (23rd) I did however have wicked heartburn on Saturday. I took a prilosec and a buch of Mylanta and it seemed to take care of it. Greg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
