It's probably gas from the laparoscopy, it typically tends to settle in the shoulders and should go away in a few days. I know it sucks and there isn't anything really to do to get rid of it. My boyfriend rubbed my shoulders and that seemed to help. Good luck

Congrats on your band! I haven't really been hungry or craving food, even when my boyfriend ate Wendy's for dinner the day of my surgery! U try and stick to at least 5 meals a day, and it seems that just about a cup of whatever I'm eating fills me up. I started on whey protein shakes today and those were awesome!! Good luck with your band and continued weight loss!!!

I never thought about that, thanks for the info! I'm willing to try just about anything at this point. My first appt is Friday morning but I wanted to nip it before I got there. Thanks again

I had my lap band done on 9/13/12, it's been 6 days and for the most part everything seems to be going well. I made it past the "clear liquid" stage and I'm 3 days into the "full liquid". Usually after breakfast, (cream of wheat) I get a feeling of pressure and it pretty much ruins my day. Anyone else have this problem?
