dmg223 LAP-BAND Patients July 25, 201115 yr Author stats I was banded on June 8th of this year. I woke up from surgery with terrible pain in my left shoulder from the air they pump in to you but now 7 weeks later I will still get that pain on occasion. It could go away for days then all of a sudden be back, hoping it goes away soon because it is getting very annoying lol .
roseyposey LAP-BAND Patients July 25, 201115 yr Author stats YES I OCCASIONALLY GET THE SHOULD PAIN AS WELL. I HAD IT REALLY BAD RIGHT AFTER SURGERY TOO. I GUESS I KINDA GOT USED TO IT AS I DON'T NOTICE IT SO MUCH ANYMORE. IT USED TO BE VERY ANNOYING. I TOOK TYLENOL GEL CAPSULES FOR IT WHICH HELPED. GOOD LUCK TO YOU AND I HOPE YOUR PAIN GOES AWAY SOON!!!
bjoanna LAP-BAND Patients July 25, 201115 yr Author stats o my yes my shoulder killed me literally for months then i took ibuprofen morning and then at night for 7 days... then it was gone finally.. but it will go away it is from the air pump and the position your body is in during surgery.
