Ok so I was banded back on Aug 12th , My Dr says I still can't lift weights , and I am feeling more and more lethargic without exercise , Can anyone recommend some exercises I can do that wont cause issues? Thanks

I was banded on 08/12 - And I had a hernia repair also. The gas pain was intense for the first 2 weeks. Really intense - gasx didnt help and I had the unfortunate side effect that I could not burp. However 2 weeks have past and its all MUCH better , I feel human again. Walking a LOT helps , and also take a nice hot bath for a long while that helps too. Don't Worry! it will go away and you will feel better again!

That shoulder pain could be gas related - if you are taking in a lot of air while eating it could be causing that sharp left shoulder pain. You should ask your doctor about it.
