Jmbdt this might be a good read. http://www.malleysurgical.com/blog/82-shoulder-pain-after-lap-band-surgery Chris (Banded 4-15-2016 @328lbs)

I have been banded for a little over a month now (yay! 35lbs lost) and I have found whenever I am hungry even after I've eaten 3 small meals a day I would eat either string cheese or Greek yogurt. It has really helped me doing so because if I don't snack I'm afraid I would turn it into a buffet style meal. Willpower is key in this Chris (Banded 4-15-2016 @328lbs)

I think counseling is great if you need it. I'm not sure if your doctor offers this but mine offers free psychiatrist and dietician for life and the support groups offered there is amazing. I hope you get the help you need Chris

Mine would flare up mainly if I drank anything during my liquid phase. (Banded 4-15-2016) I know the air is trapped because of how they performed the surgery but I would burp even if I didn't have to and it eased the pain for me. I guess by creating room for the air. I hope it has disappeared by now Chris
