shoulder pain.

Last night was the worst shoulder pain ever. Since my surgery, I've had joint pain in my left shoulder. The nurses in the hospital told me that it was gas and would go away in a few days. Here I am on day 7 but still have daily left shoulder pain. There are many different suggestions and solutions to this problem. I heard take gas x and if that doesn't work try another brand. Well, they all have the same ingrediant. What I have found is that if chewables don't work, try gel tabs or liquids or strips. But as I was saying last night was the most unrealy shoulder pain I have had. I tried something that someone here suggestion and it really works. PUT YOUR BUTT IN THE AIR, SHOULDERS TO THE BED (like a sleeping child) within seconds the pain is gone. I actually felt the gas moving towards my lower abdomen and loud burp and hallelujah. Slept like a baby the rest of the night.

Off to walk away more gas.... Hopefully it goes away for good soon.:cursing:

I haven't had my band done yet, but I have had gallbladder surgery and I had a lot of shoulder and upper back pain. The only think I found that helped was a lot of walking to break up the gas. Happy Mother's Day and I hope you feel better soon.

I have increased my walking and do feel much better. Thanks so much for the advice.
