Stomach gas usually occurs due to indigestion or food allergy, which could have triggered pancreatitis as well. unfortunately the options are very limited when it comes to food, i usually recommend Royal Canine low fat for pancreatitis but this is not likely to resolve the gas problem. one thing that could help though is a medication called Ulsanic, you should ask your vet about this option.
