Hey there, I am new to this but I had my surgery yesterday.  I had the lapband and I am doing ok.  I am having more pain from the gas than anything.  Does anyone have any other suggestions other than walking & gas medicine.  They don't seem to help.  Other than the gas I don't really have any pain.  I mean I am a little sore but nothing major.  I am still eating broth and drinking tea or water but other than that have had anything else.  Tomorrow I can start full liquids again and have my protein drinks which I think might help.  Any information from anybody would be awesome.  Thanks.

From all I have heard, the walking is the best thing for the gas.  I didn't start to fell better until I started to get that out, so I was REALLY  motivated.

I agree with the walking. I'm 4 days post-op gastric and thats's whats helping me more so than the medicine. The more I walk the more i release and get relief. So keep it up and i believe u will feel lots better. My gas pains are actually not as bad as the first day with all the walking I'm doing. Good Luck
