Like everyone else: " hang in there".. it will get better. I was banded 8/18 and I felt like my gas pains were the worst.They lasted over a week!! and i went back to work on day 5! and walked at work etc..up until last week I still felt bloated, no gas pain which was ok. My gas pains included severe shoulder pain. I mean I was so scared that the gas pain was never going to go away and I would be stuck with this horrible pain. It was worst after my first meal and at night.I finaly broke down on day 5 and bought extra strenght gas X strips! they were wonderful..within minutes the shoulder pain would go away and I would start to "release" my gas ! lol ...like said you are not alone..the pain will go away!!
LJM got a reaction from Tired of being Tired in Ugh!!!
