Anyone else have anything like this? I'm starting to think it's IBS.
Actually, you most likely don't have IBS. We all have the growling/rumbling, gas and bloating. Some with pain and others without. I think somehow that all the chewing makes us swallow more air! At any rate, you're probably fine, but if you're worried or in excessive pain, call your surgeon again. How long since you were banded?
